CADS is Seashell’s inclusive sport and activity programme and has been providing opportunities for children with profound and multiple disabilities for over 20 years.
The programme, which first started in 2003, began as a one-off week of summer holiday activities, to bring children and young people to Seashell to take part in activities with students and residents. The event quickly grew in popularity as there seemed to be nothing of its kind being delivered locally.
Over the years, CADS has developed and adapted to suit the needs of those who attend, and our CADS Crew are specially trained to ensure all activities are fully inclusive. The programme is constantly evolving in the best interests of all involved.
Sessions takes place every Saturday, as well as during academic holidays, and the programme is one of very few provisions that is able to offer one-to-one support for participants. This level of support is essential for some of the children and young people who attend, however is so frequently hard to come by.
