The PACE Centre

The PACE Centre is a UK-registered charity and special school based in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, UK.

It moved into its first purpose-built facilities in Coventon Road, Aylesbury in 1997,[2] funded mainly through the generosity of the Philip Green Memorial Trust[3] In 2009, a special PACE unit at the Heritage House secondary school in Chesham was constituted on initiative of a Buckinghamshire parent Saera Carter, staffed by teachers from the PACE Centre to support four severely disabled teenagers during their secondary school education including her disabled son.

[5] The Bradbury Campus is a converted former car dealership into an Early Years Centre that will work with babies and very young children with cerebral palsy.

[6] The first brick for the new centre was laid in April 2013 and the first building ready for occupation in January 2014.

[7] The PACE approach is based on specialist intensive learning programmes, based on the principles and practice of conductive education[1] and augmented by a range of other educational and therapeutic approaches, notably Sensory Integration, Bobath and augmentative and alternative communication strategies[8] Each year the Middle Aged men in Lycra (MAMIL) cycling club take part in a long-range cycle challenge to raise money for the PACE Centre.
