- Y Bont is the only charity of its kind in the whole of Wales. We support children with complex need through their early years and also through our out of school programmes - After school and during holidays. There is no other provision of its kind.
Many children with complex needs are unable to attend mainstream Early Years settings because of the care they require. Many require 121 care due to their medical needs and as a setting we hold medical cover as part of our insurance.
We support children with physical disabilities, chronic and life limiting conditions such as SMA Type, Dravet Syndrome and children who require Tracheostomy maintenance amongst many other conditions. We also support children with emerging needs, ASD, ADHD and other additional needs.
Our vision is that every child regardless of disability or need should have access to the Early Years environment and should have extra curricular activities suited to them where they can be part of a club without judgement that will cater for their high needs.
Every child has the right to be included and that is what we are striving towards. we provide an all inclusive environment for the children and families we support.
Because of the needs of the children we work with, our staff to child ratios are high. Our operating costs run at around 30K per month and we fundraise for every penny. Every penny raised is directly to support the children we work with provided specially trained staff to care for all of their needs.
