The children stay with host families receiving basic health & respite care as well as TLC. They enjoy a relaxing programme of informal activities and lots of fun. If anyone is interested in helping our group in any way, particularly offering as a host family, please contact our co-ordinator, Richard. He would be very pleased to hear from you. The group has a rolling schedule of fund-raising events & publicity such as local radio & press interviews; canal walk; fun run; displays; to name but a few. Hope you can help.
