A sensory room for children with autism is due to be opened at Fit Moms & Kids in Glengormley once Government Covid-19 guidelines allow.

The gym, which gives mothers the freedom and opportunity to exercise, is operated by award winning health and fitness mentor, Leanne Evans.

Leanne’s eldest son has Asperger’s and ADHD and her younger son has Global Developmental Delay. Leanne has developed an “autism friendly fitness sanctuary” at her Portland Avenue site.
