Speaking after his visit to Little Treasures the Mayor said “I had such a lovely time meeting the children, their parents and the Little Treasures volunteers at the Dean Bank Institute last Saturday, as this group is one of my mayor’s charities it was wonderful to be invited along to see the group in action, I spoke with Clair Black one of the Trustees with the charity who gave a little insight into how any funding will be used”, Clair said “ideally some of the money will be used to maintain the sensory equipment and even purchase new sensory equipment, for example, touch screen boards, fibre optic lighting, bubble lamps and bubble wands, the children love bubbles through sensory.  The long term goal for the group is to have their own Sensory Room equipped with sensory equipment.”
