In April, Saracens and England star Dan Scarbrough, opened an exciting new addition to the school’s refurbished playground – a multi-coloured wheelchair roundabout that enables less mobile children to enjoy playtime to the full.
Hay Lane School caters for about 120 pupils aged from three to 19 with severe, profound and multiple learning difficulties including autism.
Peter Scott, President of Wooden Spoon, joined members of the Middlesex committee (shown at right) on the opening day. Dan Scarbrough and the children had fun together in the playground (shown above).
Dan said: “It is so rewarding to see the difference Spoon’s fund-raising has made to the children at Hay Lane. The smiles on their faces say it all.” Middlesex Spoon chairman Gordon Brown added: “We’re delighted to be able to help and would like to thank all the Spoon supporters whose generosity makes projects like this come to life.”
