Our popular SibShops offer the opportunity for children and youth with a disabled brother or sister to have a day where the focus is just on them.
As well as having lots of fun sliding and jumping, siblings will get the chance to sit down together and talk about what it’s like having a disabled sibling, in a safe environment with others who know just where they are coming from. Run by siblings for siblings, SibShops provide a space to discuss practical tips and strategies to help them thrive in their own unique family and whānau environment. Our SibShops are incredibly popular so get in quick!
The event starts at WHIRINAKI WHARE TAONGA – Creative Classroom, then the siblings will walk 800m to Daytona Adventure Park for some trampoline and ice skating fun! Pick-up will be here at 3:00pm.
Children and youth aged 8-18 who have a disabled, neurodivergent or health impaired sibling may attend.
These workshops are free, thanks to funding from the IHC Foundation.
