MAKING A DIFFERENCE
OUR PARTNERSHIPIN NUMBERS
The Domino’s partnership is one we are extremely proud of at Barretstown. The funds raised every year help us welcome more children and families living with a serious illness to take part in our programme of Therapeutic Recreation. Our campers have so much fun making their own pizza with the Domino
Caroline Tobin, Corporate Fundraising ManagerABOUT BARRETSTOWN
For many children living with a serious illness, life becomes about what they can’t do. But at Barretstown, they help them realise (and enjoy!) what they can do. Since 1994, the team have offered these specially designed camps and programmes for children and families living with a serious illness, supported by onsite 24 hour medical and nursing care, serving over 85,000 children and families from every county in Ireland as well as across Europe and the UK.
Children and families enjoy a variety of fun-filled programmes including Arts & Crafts, Drama, Lego, Adventure Games, Mini-Golf, Canoeing, Fishing, Baking, and Moviemaking. All these activities incorporate the Barretstown therapeutic recreation model, which empowers and encourages campers to step out of their comfort zone and begin to re-build their confidence and discover something new about themselves.
