Why play?
We believe that play is vital for every child’s happiness and development.
It’s important for cognitive, physical, social, and mental wellbeing, and helps children to build confidence, self-esteem, creativity and to learn how to interact with others. Not to mention, it’s fun! But too many disabled children miss out on play…that’s where Challengers comes in.
