Nala the Therapy Dog’s First Week at MAIN

We are delighted to introduce Nala, our new therapy dog volunteer, who has had an exciting first week at MAIN! Nala went for her assessment with Pets at Therapy last month and passed on her first try. She is now an officially registered therapy dog.

Nala will be working in the prisons around Teesside and will also be joining us for clubs and fun days at MAIN. She is a 1-year-old female cocker spaniel who loves to play with everyone and also enjoys relaxing and getting cuddles. We believe she will be a perfect fit for some of the children and adults at MAIN.

Nala is one of MAIN’s own, Sophie’s dog. Sophie is one of our dedicated facilitators at MAIN.

During Nala’s first visit to the centre, she introduced herself to some of our groups and PAs. Her friendly and loving nature has already made a positive impact, and we are excited to see the joy and comfort she will bring to everyone at MAIN.

Welcome to the team, Nala!

Exciting News: The Pathway to Independence Centre is Open!

We are thrilled to announce that our Pathway to Independence Centre is now open! Over the first two weeks, the centre has already become a vibrant hub of activity and community.Our Adult Group has been enjoying the space, relaxing and socialising in a welcoming environment. It’s wonderful to see everyone coming together and making the most of the new facilities.

On Saturdays, our Teens & Tweens group has been busy in the Pathway to Independence area. They made some delicious old-school tray-bake for the first time, and it was a huge success! The teens and tweens took on the responsibility of washing, drying, and putting away the pots, as well as measuring their own ingredients. Their teamwork and enthusiasm were truly commendable.

Well done to everyone involved!

Tween and Teens Go Karting Adventure!

This weekend, our Saturday Tween and Teens group had an exhilarating time go karting! Our Tweens and Teens group, which includes young people aged 11-18, ventures out into the community once a month for an exciting activity day.

These outings are more than just fun; they play a crucial role in helping our clients build independence skills, feel comfortable in different environments, and, most importantly, enjoy themselves.

We are proud to see our young members growing and thriving through these experiences. Stay tuned for more adventures!  See the Video Here
