The Epicentre is committed to enhancing community awareness about disability and promoting inclusion locally. In addition to providing education and therapies to children with developmental disabilities, we operate various projects to encourage inclusive activities and shared spaces. Below are some of the key initiatives we are currently involved in:
1. PLAY-LEARN
The Play-Learn project is an ongoing expansion project for The Epicentre facility in New Gbawe. It has included the construction of a play area and sports court, as well as the establishment of a community physical therapy unit. The purpose of the project is to increase community engagement with the center by providing services and opportunities to students without disabilities, encouraging inclusive play and shared spaces. Programs using these expanded facilities also assist the center in generating revenue to operate sustainably.
2. Weekend Respite Camps
The Epicentre is planning weekend respite for children where they stay and engage in various activities such as cooking, baking, outdoor play, music and read sessions.
3. Sensory Garden/ Playground Project
