The remarkable journey <strong>of</strong> Ashley’s Learning Centre.<br />
By Abigail Parnell ~ Images Courtesy Ashley’s Learning Centre<br />
Education is <strong>the</strong> cornerstone <strong>of</strong> our lives, opening doors to opportunities and a brighter future. Yet, for<br />
those with special educational needs, this path is <strong>of</strong>ten riddled with challenges due to limited resources.<br />
Ashley’s Learning Centre strives to bridge this gap and empower students with special educational needs.<br />
For eight years, <strong>the</strong> centre has stood as a symbol <strong>of</strong> hope and transformation, dedicated to nurturing<br />
and educating children with special educational needs. As <strong>the</strong> school faces uncertain times, it’s important<br />
to shed light on <strong>the</strong> invaluable service it has provided and highlight <strong>the</strong> urgent need for support.<br />
