This is a specialist service offered where your local occupational therapist's training and scope of practice cover sensory processing — check availability for your area on the county page.

Sensory needs look different in every home and every family in Bollington, which is why this assessment starts with your everyday routines rather than a generic checklist. Your local occupational therapist visits your Bollington home to see things as they actually happen.

What to expect in Bollington

  • A conversation about daily routines, triggers and what already helps
  • Observation in familiar, everyday surroundings
  • Practical, low-cost strategies you can put in place straight away
  • A written summary to share with family, school or other professionals as needed

Who this helps

  • Children and adults whose sensory responses affect daily routines
  • Families noticing sensitivity to noise, touch, textures or movement affecting everyday life
  • People seeking practical strategies rather than a purely diagnostic process
  • Schools and families wanting a shared, practical understanding of a child's sensory needs
