A little bit of history about The Thomas Centre
The Thomas Centre is a family business, based on our own experiences and named after our son, Thomas.
Thomas progressed marvelously until around 15 months. Then he suddenly regressed beyond all recognition and at that point our lives changed.
With a range of diagnosis including epilepsy, autism, LKS, chronic bowel disorder (to name but a few), we realised that some of the normal things in life were eluding us, including first class holiday facilities.
Not so much a special needs centre,
but a place for the whole family, for the whole group.
So, when we moved to Lincolnshire, we bought a very redundant small farm with some very derelict and dilapidated barns.
Six years later in 2006, we took the big leap and we started to build The Thomas Centre, a holiday destination which focuses on providing a five star holiday facility, in a safe and non-judgemental environment. We wanted to create a place for our whole family, where we could relax and re-charge our own batteries, without worrying about what members of the public might say about Thomas’s behaviour.
Now well established, we are proud to receive so many fantastic responses from so many visitors and organisations that have enjoyed a holiday at The Thomas Centre.
