SUMMARY:Drop In at Shooting Star House- Christmas Special!
DESCRIPTION:For the last 11 years\, along with 100s of other cycling Santas\, Njinga have cycled a 20 km route from Richmond\, SW London to deliver gifts to our incredible children at Shooting Star Children’s Hospice. \nPolice are stopping traffic for this special occasion\, so make sure you are here promptly to welcome the cycling Santas as they come into the car park at SSH. The Santas will enter through the garden gate and place their gifts under the tree in Sparkle. These gifts will be scooped up by our Shooting Star Elves and gifted to our children throughout the festive period. There will be a brass band to guide us all in some festive carol singing. \nThe dining room will be your space to avoid the crowds and enjoy a hot chocolate in peace. The Santas can’t stay long as the police can only stop traffic for so long\, but stay with us as you normally would for a Drop-In session and we can do some Christmas crafting. We will be making some fabulous Christmas Decorations for you to take home with you. \nBetween 9.45am and 10.30am access to the building safely will be very tricky\, so please arrive at 9.15am to avoid the rush! We hope to see you there!!

SUMMARY:Teen siblings half term climbing event
DESCRIPTION:Has your teen been “climbing the walls” this half term? Well\, why not encourage them to spend the morning with other teen siblings of Shooting Star Children’s Hospices. \nWe will start the day with a 90-minute session with a fully trained instructor and of course\, all safety equipment provided. Working to their own ability with a relaxed session at Blue Spider\, Guildford. \nMeet us there with a packed lunch and some money if they want to purchase anything from the cafe afterward. We may need to communicate some documents with you from Blue Spider so please ensure these are returned as quickly as possible so we don’t hold up the session when we get there. If your teen is worried about not knowing anyone\, please reassure them that there are no cheesy “tell us your name and something fun about yourself” icebreakers – just a bunch of teens climbing and “hanging” out! One of the Family Support Team members will be there at all times to ensure the event goes smoothly.

SUMMARY:Mum and Me Pamper Event
DESCRIPTION:Indulge in a day of relaxation and rejuvenation\, where the focus is solely on taking time for yourself and your child. \nWear comfortable clothing as you will be invited to join a relaxation session\, designed to promote peace and calm. We will show you the techniques of story massage that you can do at home together as well. Then make some goodies to ensure the pampering can continue at home\, like bath bombs\, essential oil rollers and more. \nThis event offers a unique opportunity for you to recharge\, feel pampered\, and form supportive relationships with other Mum’s and their children. \nWe understand that schedules can change\, and it may be necessary to cancel\, so please let us know in advance to allow us to fill your place with another deserving Mum. Please book 2 tickets\, one for you and one for your child so we know who’s coming. If you have a sibling that will be in your care and wish to attend yourself and the child supported by us\, please reach out to us and we can discuss if this will be possible. \nWe can’t wait to see you both there! \nPlease note this is not for bereaved parents or siblings.
