Extratime Coronavirus (COVID-19) Statement

The extraordinary circumstances presented by the Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis mean we cannot offer Extratime’s usual services during this incredibly challenging time. Instead we are working hard to offer alternative approaches to bring Extratime to children, young people and families in their own homes. Link to full Coronavirus Statement
