Sue Beddowes, of Ability Links, said children in the region could be isolated and not taking part in regular activities like sport.
"This basically is giving them a little bit of a taster, if you like, of what they could be interested in or love doing and they don't know until they try," she said.
"It's also very social as well, I'd like it to lead on to a few more social groups being created from this."
Members of Intereach's Reach Out And Relax team will also be available to talk to fun day participants.
"They might be struggling with life and they just want someone to reach out to," Ms Beddowes said.
