Childhood stops for seriously ill children. At Barretstown we Press Play

Barretstown offers free therapeutic programmes at our unique specially-designed campus in Co. Kildare for children and their families living with a serious illness.

 

Barretstown empowers and encourages each child to step out of their comfort zone and re-build their confidence through our medically endorsed therapeutic programmes. We believe that every child with serious illness should enjoy their childhood.

 

All of the children and families come to Barretstown free of charge. Everything, including accommodation, food and medical assistance are provided at no cost to the family.

 

Families always talk of how a diagnosis of serious illness means that normal family life stops, everything becomes about the sick child and the fight to save their life. Barretstown helps children and their families deal with the emotional and physiological scars often left after months and years of treatment. Hospitals treat the illness but Barretstown treats the child.

 

With the funds we currently have, we are reaching as many children as we can. However, there are thousands of seriously ill children that we cannot yet reach. Barretstown needs to run more camps and programmes for seriously ill children. You can make this happen. You can help to take their childhood off pause.
