Between 2000 and 2007,having completed training in Brain Gym, I ran the Kaleidoscope Programme, a holistic programme for children with learning difficulties. We combined homeopathy with cranial osteopathy and brain-stimulating co-ordination excersises. In 2007, after a long battle with the charities commission, we decided to close the programme down due to lack of funding. We had hoped to register as a charity so that local families could have been able to afford to use our services, however the Charities Commission are very sceptical when it comes to alternative therapies and despite jumping through all the hoops they set for us we were still refused charitable status. Throughout the seven years that the programme ran we operated on a very low income, with some of the team doing a significant amount of unpaid work. Sadly, in 2007, we decided it was time to call it a day.
