What we do

Welcome to Tiny Steps. Our aim is to provide a sensory centre and social cafe for children and young people with additional needs and their families in the Northwich/Winsford area in Cheshire West and Chester.

It is often hard to find activities that are accessible and enjoyable for families in this situation. Our plan is to change things by providing this service within our local community.

Tiny Steps is a non-profit making charity run by volunteers and is heavily reliant on donations. We are in the early stages of building the charity so please support us where you can. If you have any ideas for possible ways to raise money, no matter how big or small, it is all greatly appreciated.

About our Fundraising

The fundraising efforts, by the Tiny Steps community, volunteers and generally people who just want to help has surpassed expectations, demonstrating the remarkable generosity and support of our local community.

Through collaborative endeavours and unwavering dedication, whether it be a cake sale, a fancy dress, running a marathon or considering us in a milestone event, it only goes to fuel our mission and momentum.

Every contribution, whether large or small, has made a tangible impact, empowering us and believe that our need is worthwhile and will benefit so many families. Together, we're not just raising funds; we're providing families and young children with a place they belong, a place where to play and a safe environment.

Tiny Steps Big Goal

The big goal

The Tiny Steps main goal is to establish a permanent home where we can fulfil our mission of inclusivity and support for children with additional needs.

Central to this vision is the creation of a dedicated sensory centre, designed to provide a safe, stimulating environment where these children can thrive and develop essential skills.

This initiative embodies our commitment to fostering inclusivity, understanding, and empowerment for every child, irrespective of their abilities. With our forever home and sensory play area, we aim to not only provide essential services but also cultivate a sense of belonging, acceptance, and joy for all those we serve.

Special Sensory Need (SEN) Activities

We are run by parents who have children with complex needs and want to create a support network for other families who face similar challenges.
