Our popular SibShops offer the opportunity for children and youth aged 8-18 with a disabled, neurodivergent or health-impaired brother or sister to have a day where the focus and attention is just on them.
As well as having a blast at Velocity on the trampolines, laser tag and arcade games, 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!
This event starts at the Heretaunga Women’s Centre, after the workshop the group will take a short, 10-minute walk to Velocity Entertainment, 405 Saint Aubyn Street East, Hastings 4122.
Thanks to Harold Holt Trust for funding this SibShop for 8 to 18-year-olds.
