Alongside the Sensory Room, and in other areas of the building, we have several suites of specialised computer equipment that are linked to the Internet and to the internal network of the Centre. Each computer has a touch-sensitive screen and many have specialised keyboards and switches.

We have a large-screen interactive Whiteboard which is linked to the computer system and also to a Wii games console.

A wide variety of specialised software and educational games designed to encourage both mental and physical dexterity enable individuals to maintain and develop their skills at any level in an enjoyable way.
