Activities
We provide a range of engaging activities that can support whole families (either together or as individuals), precious time out from day-to-day challenges, opportunities for sharing and healing and to make memories.
Our activities are very much shaped by the needs of beneficiaries and over the last 2 years we’ve increased our support offer substantially to include activity and therapy days for children with life-limiting and/or life-threatening illnesses, their siblings and parents, as well as activities for bereaved Mums and Dads, brothers and sisters. We will continue to develop and diversify our services as we complete each phase of renovation works to our facility. Examples include:
- Dad’s Rambles
- Mummy’s Rambles
- Music Therapy
- Animal Therapy
- Sibling Days
- Memory Making
- Seasonal activities and celebrations (Mad Hatters Tea Party, Halloween Spectacular, etc.)
If would like to know more about our activity or therapy days please call on 01457 680023 or email support@reubensretreat.org.
