It was time to help the All Aboard club to set up their big train track again, for a play session for kids with autism and ADHD.
Sam and JP met at the Barn Church in Kew and got to work laying out track faster than Gromit in The Wrong Trousers.
We made sure to put in plenty of loops and turns, bridges and tunnels to make it interesting for the kids. Then we gave it a test run with Thomas the Tank and, satisfied with our work we went on our way!

Our activities are designed and run by specialists with lived experience of autism and ADHD. We understand the children’s challenges and the importance of their special interests.
Aboard Club runs play sessions for autistic and ADHD children, where they can build their confidence, develop their social skills and just be themselves. We provide a safe, understanding and inclusive environment for the children to enjoy their trains. The children are in charge. They can run trains around the track, or build their own track. They can choose from boxes and boxes of trains, track, tunnels and bridges.
