Who this task will support
All Aboard Club
All Aboard Club runs play sessions across London and Surrey for autistic ADHD and SEND children, where they can build and play with our giant train sets in a safe, understanding and supportive environment.

All Aboard Club CIC are looking for help setting up big train track for neurodiverse children to play with in a safe, welcoming environment. You can read more about the great work they do on their website. GoodGym have already been involved with All Aboard Club across various London boroughs and they are in an awesome new location, the London Transport Museum Depot in Acton!

✔️ What are we doing?

This is as fun a challenge for those constructing the track as for those who'll play with it. It'll take you right back to your childhood, on a much bigger scale with all of the track pieces that you once dreamed of having! We'll be working with All Aboard Club's own volunteers, so they'll guide us on what makes an engaging experience for the attendees.

We'll be:

  1. 🚅 Building the train track before the children arrive
  2. 🦺 Be able to help children and parents after the task, if you'd like to hang around

⚠️ Anything to be aware of?

This task does require GoodGymers to be able to kneel or sit at floor level and to bring a feeling of calm to the task, even though it is an exciting thing to do!

Note that we're adding to All Aboard Club's regular volunteers, so if they have lots of helpers, we may find out that we're not needed
