Bounce for Autism: Celebrating Five Years of Making a Difference
We are absolutely delighted to share some wonderful news with our community. In partnership with BERG and the Irish Society for Autism, Trampolines Ireland is proud to announce that the Bounce for Autism program has been extended for another year, marking an incredible five years of this initiative.
Why Trampolining Matters
When we first launched Bounce for Autism, we did so with a simple but powerful understanding: children and adults with autism and related conditions benefit tremendously from regular trampoline use.
The rhythmic bouncing motion provides sensory input that many find calming and regulating. It offers a safe outlet for energy, helps develop motor skills and coordination, and perhaps most importantly, it's genuinely fun.
Trampolining doesn't feel like therapy—it feels like play. And that makes all the difference.
How the Program Works
The concept behind Bounce for Autism is straightforward. Working alongside BERG and the Irish Society for Autism, we identify special schools and schools with special classes throughout Ireland that would benefit from having a quality trampoline on their grounds.
We then donate trampolines to these schools, giving students regular access to an activity that supports their wellbeing and development.
Five Years of Impact
Over the past five years, we have donated approximately 40 to 50 trampolines to schools across Ireland. Each one of those trampolines represents countless hours of joy, regulation, exercise, and progress for the students who use them.
This makes Bounce for Autism one of the most successful and far-reaching charity programs that Trampolines Ireland has ever been involved in—and we are tremendously proud of that achievement.
Looking Ahead
As we enter our fifth year, we remain as committed as ever to expanding the reach of this program and bringing the benefits of trampolining to even more schools and students across Ireland.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to BERG for their continued support and to the Irish Society for Autism for their invaluable guidance and partnership. Together, we're making a real difference, one bounce at a time.
