bOunceT was founded as a Community Interest Company (CIC) in 2017 by Callum MacKinnon (Occupational Therapist). A project initially set up to deliver therapeutic play and inclusive exercise to individuals with disabilities, and their families, in Stirling quickly transformed into a fast-growing business.
From online assessments & ‘on-call’ advice, to in-person support & specialist play, we can help the whole family!
Our new eLearning module is available to access now! Purposeful Play is a foundation-level training for parents/carers, and ‘newbies’ to the world of additional support needs.
We are now an approved supplier to Stirling Council!
To improve the quality of life and participation in meaningful activities for children and adults with disabilities, and their family!
play as a means to achieving other developmental goals… play as an occupation: play as an aim, play as a right, and play for participation.
“Our session was very successful! Both kids have asked if they can go back. A was very animated as she has been quite withdrawn.”
For our pupils, bOunceT is focused on the sensory and social outcomes, giving a safe space for them to experience the sensations that come with being on a trampoline and the chance to engage with Callum during the session. The benefits of the sessions extend beyond the trampoline though, with the time spent in these sessions having a calming effect which can help pupils throughout the day!
Staff are very well educated and trained to high standards … We recommend this service to families that we support and are happy to be funding some individuals to achieve their desired outcomes.
“Just wanted to say a big thank you for the use of the therapy room today. The kids loved it! A even managed to jump independently for the first time so we are really chuffed!
“I spoke to Francesca about the difference the support you are offering, it is invaluable to us as a family with various chronic health conditions.”
“H had a great time and felt really at ease in the room. She played for a little while, maybe 20 minutes, then we did some stretching exercises on the big trampoline to help loosen her hamstrings… she said that when she left she felt like she was floating on a cloud!”
bOunceT have been the most supportive service to us during these times and don’t get enough recognition for the work they do. THANK YOU”
