It's that time of year again where we would like to borrow the Siblings (5+) of children who are currently receiving our support for the day at Shooting Star House! Things are about to get messy, so please ensure you look closely at the kit list below.

Our siblings’ days help children find comfort in being with other siblings and a chance to make some new friends or meet up with ones they have met before.

Amongst several therapeutic activities, we will be using the hydrotherapy pool for a splashy swimming session and are also lucky enough to be joined by Rocksteady, who will be leading our siblings in a musical workshop! Activities are supported by our team of therapists to ensure we give siblings the emotional support they need. Please dont hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about the therapeutic activites throughout the day.

Kit list

swimmers and a towel
waterproof coat
change of clothes
water bottle
packed lunch/last night’s dinner in a Tupperware..(NO NUTS or KIWI PLEASE)
any medicines in a named bag and handed to staff on arrival

We try to encourage children to be independent and say goodbye in reception. Please let us know if you think your child might struggle and we can make sure a friendly face is there to greet them.

*Please note that this event is not for bereaved siblings, please see our separate event tailored specifically to bereaved siblings.
