CLEAR SKY CHILDREN'S CHARITY
We provide one to one Play & Creative Arts Therapies to children who are struggling with emotional or behavioural difficulties. Sessions are delivered in the child's school. We work with parents on a one to one basis and in groups, and provide training to those who work with children and young people in our approach focusing on the use of play to support healthy emotional development.

However, the trustees report that the charity relies on unpredictable grants and donations to cover shortfalls, and without a clear plan to remedy this, it could not continue as a going concern.
