Stepping Out would not have been possible without the generosity of Pam Scott.

Sensory Bus
Stepping Out has many supporters who help us in a variety of ways. Our national Sensory Bus Appeal in 2021, raised £8,500 and we had further donations of £4,500 and a grant of £3,500 from the Sanderson Art in Industry Trust which made the bus a reality - read about its conversion here.
