― Programmes
Activities with a
purpose.
Purposeful opportunities shaped around individual strengths, needs and meaningful participation.
Movement & Sport
Adapted sport, movement, games and fitness supporting participation and confidence.
Sensory & Calm
Sensory activities and access to calm or quiet spaces when participants need them.
Music & Creativity
Music, art and creative activities supporting communication, expression and confidence.
Life Skills
Practical independence opportunities, particularly for older cohorts as the service develops.
Community Activities
Supported outings and partnerships with established leisure and specialist venues.
Future Growth
After-school and holiday opportunities may be considered as OSASERE develops from its initial Saturday programme.
― Phase 1
The first programme is deliberately small.
OSASERE plans to begin with one cohort, a six-to-eight-week Saturday pilot and a two-hour weekly session in an accessible hired venue.
Indicatively, the starting group may be 6-8 participants, subject to individual assessment. The team will be adjusted to assessed needs rather than relying on a universal staffing ratio.

― Programme boundaries
Start small. Learn well.
The initial model is community activity / short-break style provision unless professional advice confirms a broader scope.
Transport during the pilot is planned to be parent/carer arranged. Specialist activities will use established leisure or specialist venues rather than buying complex facilities.
An 18-25 programme will be designed separately after the children’s service is stable because safeguarding, commissioning and adult-service considerations differ.
