They have varied hobbies and interests such as swimming, horse riding, trampolining, arts and crafts, baking, sensory sessions, music sessions, bingo, karaoke, meals out, theatre and cinema trips, bowling, walks, bike rides, music festivals and concerts, boat trips, skiing, tobogganing and holidays.
