Not being bored is probably the most important :)

Don't forget you can support us at Tesco by voting for People's Meeples whenever you shop :)
The money we raise goes exclusively to our Autism Friendly Night :)

Join us on Monday evenings to play games at tea@hart in a relaxed, informal atmosphere!

Sick of kids coming home complaining that they have to learn a load of maths they'll never use?
Lots of board and card games provide a great practical application for the kind of strategies, logic, and knowledge they use in their maths class.
Probability might be dull, until you realise it gives you an edge in Catan :)

Looking for something to do during half term?
Then come and join us!
No statement necessary - it's just a place to play games with others. And games a great, because they provide a clear focus to social interactions, have clear rules and structure, and allow people to meet each other without the social awkwardness that can come with 'small talk'!
... Children under 12 with their families, and teens (with or without families, depending on need - please get in touch if you would like to talk about the requirements for your children) are all very welcome.
