Make content about: Freya took on the giant swing

After past respite stays had to be cut short, Freya took on climbing and the giant swing during an outdoor week away.

This story

Freya has cerebral palsy, uses a wheelchair and has high support needs. In the past, respite placements had proved difficult and sometimes had to be cut short, leaving her family unsure how another try would go. A week away at an outdoor adventure centre gave her the chance to tackle climbing and the giant swing, make a close friend and give her parents a break.
