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 the wave pool and hydroslide, 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 the Hillier Centre then the siblings will walk 500 metres to Baywave TECT Aquatic and Leisure Centre on the corner of Girven Road & Gloucester Road, Mount Maunganui for parent pick-up at 4:00pm.
Thank you to IHC Foundation for funding this event.
