low ropes course


The therapeutic residential weekends bring together bereaved children from Norfolk for an enjoyable weekend which includes outdoor activities and challenges.  By meeting others, the children and young people realise they are not alone in their experience.

On camp the children are able to express their thoughts, feelings and ask questions in a safe and supported environment.  The weekends also provide the children with opportunities to remember the person who has died through a variety of activities which include drama, art and crafts.

A special candlelight ceremony is held where everyone attending camp, adults and children alike, light a candle for the person they have come to remember.
