*A lifelong physical health condition is one which can be treated and managed but usually not cured. Examples include diabetes, epilepsy, cystic fibrosis, allergies, heart conditions, chronic asthma, spina bifida, juvenile arthritis, rare or complex conditions and many more.
About the Programmes
Living with a lifelong physical health condition is hard. Children can face loneliness, stress, anxiety, and feel defined by their condition. They experience stigma associated with their condition, social isolation, loneliness and fewer quality friendships.
These programmes are a great opportunity for these children to not only explore their creativity but also to make new friends, learn new life skills, grow in confidence and have fun!
