Welcome

Welcome to the web site for our organisation, BASC - Bandon Area Special Children - which aims to help and support parents of children with intellectual disability in the Bandon and Kinsale areas of County Cork.
We are involved with a wide network within the community and beyond; parents, schools, Brothers of Charity, Department of Education, Department of Health and Special Olympics Ireland.
Since the 1990’s we have been supporting educational resources, events and venues in the Bandon and Kinsale areas for children and adults with intellectual disability.
Currently we support a facility in Mill Court, Bandon, which provides pre-school facilities and interventions such as speech therapies and psychological assessments.
We also have a Home Support/Youth Worker which has enable us to set up of Fun Clubs for junior and senior level and the annual summer camp which is enjoyed by all.
For some years we have also been involved with Special Olympics, an organisation set up to help children with learning difficulties to achieve in the area of sport.
