Notice Information

Notice Title

The Happiness Programme Cohort 2

Notice Description

The Happiness Programme is currently in use in 10 of our day care settings and the contract for these existing 10 settings has been extended for a further 3 years. Using money from the MSIF fund we are now hoping to extend this programme to a further 10 day care providers making a total of 20 settings. The equipment is the magic table 360 (interactive lights technology, games, relaxation etc) and the programme itself includes updates, training, support etc. An outcomes report has been produced and shows really positive outcomes from the initial 10 settings. This is more than a subscription as it covers ownership of the equipment and support for the equipment as well as training and updates.
