We have recently hat the pleasure of working with 2 inspirational groups supported by Haven House Children's Hospice. The Hospice cares for seriously ill babies and children (up to the age of 18) providing help and care to the whole family.
The Buddies programme, for the brothers and sisters of a child that uses, or has used, Haven House's services, runs activities that try to build their skills, confidence and resilience, all areas of development that the Cast A Thought sessions support.
The Dad's group offers a casual setting for the dads to talk, develop friendships and enjoy time together, thus supporting their mental health and wellbeing.
The stories that we were told makes us realise how incredible these families and the staff at the hospice are. We were truly humbled.
Thank you to Redbridge Lakes ( www.redbridgelakes.co.uk) for the use of your lakes and for the food and hospitality.
We look forward to working with the Dad's group again on 16th September and the Buddies group at some point in the future.
