About this cause

We provide holiday respite for families experiencing ill health or convalescence. We are very aware that families experiencing ill health or convalescence are often affected by economic hardship and sometimes this makes getting away on holiday very difficult, despite the benefits it could bring. Some people who might benefit from the calm or the fun at Cathleen’s Cabin are: The whole family, patient, brothers and sisters, mum and dad and even grandparents if they want to come While your child is in respite care, the rest of the family might want a wee respite break too Mum and dad (or a single parent with a friend or two), might need time on their own For the first 5 years of bereavement Other persons identified as in need of recuperation irrespective of age

How this cause brings people in the community together

We think that by families who are going through challenges whether that be a terminally ill child or a child experiencing a bereavement of a parent, a holiday can help to provide respite and is beneficial in many ways. It will help by providing those in need with the time to get away from their day to day challenges whilst giving them that extra activity to enjoy themselves.
