Northumbria’s sensory processing service is expanding its offer

Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust’s Children’s Occupational Therapy Service is now able to extend its sensory processing offer to support children and young people in North Tyneside too.

To access the service, children, young people will need to be referred via a Healthcare Professional or Specialist Teacher from the Language & Communication Team. Adults with a Learning Disability can be referred by a member of the Community Learning Disability Team.

The current bespoke co-produced website has been updated and will continue to act as a hub of information to support parents / carers and other professionals. It uses video as well as written guides to aid understanding around how sensory processing can impact daily life. The contact section features a referral form for professionals, as well as providing key contact details should site visitors have any further questions.
