Our Story
Our Story
The Sensory Hive began as a seed of an idea back in 2017 and has since blossomed into a thriving organisation providing valuable therapeutic and educational services for the disabled community across Merseyside and beyond.
​
I’m Hayley — Director of The Sensory Hive and teacher. I am neurodivergent and mum to two neurodivergent daughters. Our house is a fun mix of autism, ADHD and learning disabilities!
​
Through my own lived experience, I understand how sensory differences can profoundly impact individuals and their families. Our busy, chaotic world often leaves us feeling overwhelmed and isolated, with few safe, accessible spaces for sensory-sensitive and sensory-seeking children, young people, and adults.
​
​
​We have paved the way in offering a first of its kind, specialist Sensory Integration Therapy Centre.
​Based in Whiston, Knowsley, our state-of-the-art facility is a vibrant hive of activity.
It features a custom-designed sensory gym with a mezzanine level, a fully immersive and interactive sensory room, and a dedicated Sensory Integration suite built to meet ASI fidelity standards.
​
​​
​The Sensory Hive warmly welcomes individuals of all ages with visible and hidden disabilities.
Our wonderfully diverse community has a range of care needs, neurodivergences, Learning Disabilities, and conditions such as Cerebral Palsy, Acquired Brain Injury, Down Syndrome, and Profound and Multiple Learning Disabilities (PMLD).
We hope to see you soon!​
