internet and email

Hurrah - internet and email upgrade up and running now at CEDA

Kids clubs at CEDA

There are some spaces in all our kids clubs - holiday, Saturday, afterschool. Referral process takes 2 - 3 weeks as we like to meet you and your child, and give them a bit of time to get used to us etc. We do range of activities - from arts and crafts and filming to gardening and sport. Our Sports and Activities Leader ensures everyone is included. To find out more, visit our website, or come and see us at the Clare Milne Centre on Exeter Business Park - near the Met Office.

Nearly There

Hi everyone Craig here, we've all been very busy preparing for the CEDA open event taking place on Friday, 1-3pm if you didn't already know... great excuse to slip away from work early and join us as we kick off our birthday celebrations, you can even grab a slice of cake and glass of pimms if your there early enough.
Everone has been working hard on setting up some fantastic displays and producing new litriture explaining all the new things CEDA are launching.

As well as the open day we are getting ready for the long 7 week childrens holiday, battling the rain to access our fantastic fully accessible allotment and keeping up with all this modern technology. The new website if well under construction now, and when it is all finished expect to see this blog on there and updated frequently.

Well hope to see you on Friday and click follow to receive updates everytime either Trish or I add to the blog.

1.00p.m. start for open day

aaaaarrrgh - typical me - I have beeen saying the open afternoon on 12th June starts at 1.30 - by which time you will have missed Ren's speech, the cutting of the cake and the Pimm's. So please arrive at 1.00p.m. so that you get more than cake crumbs and dregs of Pimm's, and the last half sentence spoken by Ren.

Spent a very hot and sticky day at the Corn Exchange today - now fired up with how to get the funding we need for our respite services pilot - although a scary to actually move it forward, it is needed and what CEDA can offer will mean more choice for all those carers needing breaks, and disabled people needing breaks from their carers - watch this space......

You can follow this blog to find out all the latest info about CEDA. CEDA is probably Devon's bet kept secret. We provide opportunities for disabled people of all ages - children, young people in transition and adults. You'll be surprised at some of the things we offer - gardening at an inclusive allotment, dance, debate, computers, to name but a few. We have sensory rooms and a sensory garden. A fantastic playroom with loads of toys, and a "teenagery" music room. One of the special things about CEDA is its staff - they go the extra mile to offer a bespoke service to every CEDA student or CEDA user. You are always welcome to have a look round - we're easy to get to - being by the MET Office at Exeter Business Park. We have an open afternoon on 12th June - one to put in the diary.
