All aboard events to suit you

Family events

Birthday parties can be difficult for autistic and ADHD children. But you can still have the All Aboard Club trains at your family event, where the children and grown-ups can play together.

We just need a large room or hall, and we’ll sort out the rest for you.

Frequently asked questions

Who can come?
We welcome autistic and ADHD children of any age, whether they have a formal diagnosis or not. You don’t need an invitation or a referral. Just book your tickets and come along. Most of the children at our events are aged between 4 and 11, but we also have older children who enjoy their trains.
Where do you run your play sessions?
We run play sessions in community/church halls, schools, and museums – anywhere with a large room. We have exclusive use of the venue, and ensure that sensory challenges are minimised as much as possible.
My child has sensory issues. Is this a problem?
All Aboard Club is run by autism and ADHD professionals who completely understand the children’s sensory issues. We try to keep the noise levels as low as possible, and reduce other sensory challenges as much as possible.
Can I buy just one pack?
Yes – each of our TrainTime activity packs can be bought separately. If you like what’s inside, you can then take a subscription to get a pack every month.
Do we have to arrive at the start of the session?
No, you can come at any time you like. We know how difficult it can be to get out of the house, so please don’t rush.
My child is very anxious. Can we leave early if necessary?
My child is very anxious. Can we leave early if necessary?
Yes, of course. Some children come for just 20 minutes, others stay for the full 2 hours. Whatever suits you best.
Some autistic and ADHD children flap their hands or makes noises (stimming). Will this upset the other children?
We totally understand children’s need to stim. It shows that they are excited or trying to focus. The other children and parents at our play sessions also understand this, and will be very accepting and supportive.
