Bounce for Autism
Trampolines Ireland is proud to announce -
"Bounce for Autism" in co-operation with The Irish Society for Autism.
Trampolines can be a tremendous outlet for both children and their parents, whether they have autism or not as they allow children and adults to burn up energy, get fit and enjoy the mind-calming benefits of trampolining.

At Trampolines Ireland we're pleased to be able to supply trampolines all over the country and we're delighted to announce our new initiative -
"Bounce for Autism" in co-operation with The Irish Society for Autism, is a new campaign where Trampolines Ireland have pledged to gift a minimum of 10 trampolines to Special Schools over the next 12 months.

The key benefits of trampolining for kids and adults with Autism include:
- relieves anxiety and pent-up emotions and stress,
- self-soothing in a fun and active way,
- gives them healthy exercise that their bodies need,
- improves balance and co-ordination,
- builds confidence in their abilities,
- and the positive benefits of time spent on the trampoline can last for hours or even the rest of the day.
