POP Essex

Address: 5-7 Bocking End (Former Argos), Braintree, Essex, CM7 9AE

Overview:

POP Essex was founded in July 2022 by a group of SEND parents, looking to fulfil the needs of SEND Families in Essex who needed a safe, secure and non-judgemental environment for their children to play, socialise and above all, be themselves.
