The project, which began in early November, highlights the regional dimension the service has acquired, demonstrating its importance beyond the local scope. Launched during the 2022-2023 academic year, 'Espai +5 i Famílies' was created to address the needs of children aged 5 to 11 with specific educational support needs (NESE) and their families, particularly in situations where public resources are insufficient or access to specialized services is difficult.
Over these four courses, the project has grown and is consolidating itself as a key resource in the Berguedà region. The weekly one-and-a-half-hour sessions are led by professionals from the Fundació La Llar (The Home Foundation), offering children a space for sensorimotor development through play, movement, relationships, and creativity in a safe environment.
The initiative also supports families, providing them with a space for listening, accompaniment, and support. These sessions are complemented by bimonthly meetings to share experiences, resolve doubts, and address issues related to parenting and child development, with the assistance of a psychological support service. The professional team has expanded and currently includes two psychologists and two physiotherapists.
