A group has been set up to support children of all ages who are dealing with the trauma of a parent, sibling or close relative having cancer.

Frequently children feel isolated, alone and unable to speak to anyone about their fears. At the Centre, qualified child therapists support each child through play, art and interaction with other children in similar circumstances.

Therapists also support the parents and give them guidelines on supporting their child at this time.

The Centre also supports young people with cancer. It offers a home away from home where they can plan social activities and avail of all the therapies and counselling and workshops at the centre, while supporting each other in a relaxed and caring environment.
