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 the ultimate adventure of climbing walls, conquering high ropes and navigating through obstacles, 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 workshop starts at the Mokoia Community Hall, then the siblings will travel by vans to the Motion Entertainment Centre to experience exciting obstacles at the Vortex Ninja Park. Lunch will be provided.
This event is free, thanks to funding from Rotorua Trust.
