Cece’s Story

How Kids has supported

Cece enjoys attending one of our Adventure Playgrounds, where she can spend time with her peers in a safe and supportive environment. This space gives her the freedom to socialise, explore activities she enjoys, and build confidence, all while being supported by a familiar and experienced team.

For Cece’s mum, knowing there is a trusted environment where her daughter is supported brings real reassurance. She explains that staff “keep Cece safe and make sure she has time interacting with her peers in a safe, structured environment.”

A memorable experience at Comic Con

More recently, Cece joined the Kids team at MCM Comic Con. She assisted on both the Kids awareness stand with the tombola, and also upstairs in the Quiet Room, which Kids hosted for visitors needing a calm space. She embraced the experience and played an important part in helping others enjoy the event.

The impact

For Cece, experiences like Kids’ Adventure Playgrounds and MCM Comic Con are about far more than activities – they are moments of growth, joy, and independence. For her family, knowing she is supported by people who understand her needs and keep her safe brings real reassurance. Together, these opportunities help young people feel included, valued, and supported as they build confidence, independence, and friendships in a safe and welcoming environment.
