On Sunday 22nd October, we were invited by Rays of Sunshine to attend ‘Inside and Out: The Confidence Event for Teens’ at the OXO Tower in London. This event for 12-18 year old teens with complex medical needs provided a jam-packed day of expert advice and demos, as well as workshops and fun activities to help build confidence.
We attended the event to provide ‘Brave Big Night In’ Bags to the 100 Parent Carers who were attending with their children. Each bag contained items designed for two people to have a night in together. This included hot drinks, sweet treats, popcorn and a quiz to play. We hope that by sharing Brave Bags and talking to people on the day, we spread the importance of self care to Parent Carers.
