Sensory Kits

Sensory Kit - Visiting Our Centres

Does a young person in your life need a little extra support to feel calm and comfortable in a busy space?

At the Hervey Bay Neighbourhood Centre, we understand that public places and even long meetings can sometimes feel overwhelming for little
minds.

There are moments when conversations aren’t suited for little ears, or when children simply need something to help them stay engaged and
relaxed.
