π§ Our pool is leaking! Can you help?
Today, we're launching an appeal to repair our specialist pool before the start of the new college year in September.
For many people we support, our pool is much more than somewhere to swim. Itβs somewhere they can move freely, build confidence and enjoy a sense of independence thatβs not always possible on land.
We're determined not to let the people who rely on the pool lose access to something so important, but to fund the work we've had to use our emergency savings. It is going to cost almost Β£100,000 to fix.
A donation of any size would make a real difference.
With huge thanks to Exeter Chiefs Foundation for their support.
π Please donate today and share our appeal.

One class has been using fresh ingredients to create a refreshing non-alcoholic sangria β the perfect way to stay cool while developing valuable communication skills.
Learning, fresh air, and a delicious summer treat β what could be better? πππΉ

πΏ Did you know that InFocus College is set within 13 acres of beautiful grounds, offering a wealth of outdoor learning opportunities?
Weβre passionate about the benefits of learning in nature. The outdoors provides a calming, sensory-rich environment while creating meaningful opportunities to develop new skills and confidence.
With our berries almost ready to harvest, students will soon be heading outside with our Occupational Therapy Team to pick fresh fruit for use in cooking lessons.
From garden to kitchen, it's a fantastic way to build independence, learn practical life skills and enjoy the rewards of growing your own food. ππ«

How can specialist schools and colleges better support young people with vision impairment?
In a recent episode of Focus In, Cameron is joined by Nic Smith, Deputy Head of InFocus College, to discuss the challenges vision-impaired learners can face, why specialist knowledge matters, and how the right support can help young people thrive.
From assistive technology to practical classroom adaptations, this episode is packed with insights for parents, carers and professionals.
