Warfare 2025 Show Charity:

At Warfare we continue to support different charitable organisations, with this year our chosen charity being Swings & Smiles.

Swings & Smiles offers play sessions for children with special needs and their whole family at our centre in Thatcham. We have specialist play resources to enable children with a wide range of disabilities to play with siblings and other family members in a secure and safe environment. Not everyone can make it to our centre in Thatcham and we want to make sure that Swings & Smiles is able to meet the needs of as many children, young people and families as possible.
Through our Outreach service we can travel to existing groups, schools and other community settings to deliver a range of sensory based play at a time and place that suits you. Outreach can also make visits to individuals in the home or at another appropriate setting.
