About Playskill

Helping hundreds of children and families since 2006, Playskill supports children up to age five with physical disabilities and delays in Hertfordshire to develop their communication, movement and key life skills. The charity provides free therapeutic play sessions, alongside training, advice, support and events for families.

At the weekly specialist playgroups in Watford & Hemel Hempstead, Playskill provides physiotherapy, occupational and speech & language therapy tailored to the child’s needs. Each group session uses play as a tool for development – while the children are having fun, they are also learning to stand, eat, walk, communicate, feed and dress themselves.

Playskill also offers specialist training and one-to-one support for parents as they navigate health, education & financial services. Plus access to an all-important support network of parents and carers, including social events for parents, siblings and together as a family.

The only charity of its kind in Hertfordshire, and one of only a few in the country, we step in during the crucial early intervention window (up to age five) when the brain is developing faster than at any other time.

Playskill is free to families. The Charity receives no Government funding and relies wholly on donations to provide its vital service.
