Report Camp for children with cancer 6-12 years

By Marianne Naafs | director

From 19-21 May 45 children participated in the VOKK-camp for children from 6-12 years old on Camping de Oldemeyer in  Rheeze (Hardenberg).
The theme of the weekend was The Wild West.
It was a weekend of fun, sharing, making friends, for patients, former patients and their siblings.
For some of them it was the first time to be without their parents after an intensive treatment peri

The challenges of the weekend help children to feel they are not they are not alone. They feel stronger and happier, are better able to cope with their illness and it effects on their lives. This results in a positive impact on their wellbeing and menthal health. They feel stronger and are fitter to cope with problems which will come on their path.

Children are already looking forward to the next camp!
