What is Giggle Visits:
Giggle Visits is a one-year pilot project that will bring the person-centred engagement used in hospitals and hospices on our fantastic Clown Round project to the new setting of women’s refuges. Our Giggle Workers will use their special brand of artistry to bring fun, laughter and distraction to children and young people in two women’s refuges in Norfolk run by Leeway.
In a series of regular visits planned for 2018, the Giggle Workers will engage young people in clowning, storytelling, music, magic, circus skills and improvisation. They will focus on supporting and empowering young people and their families during what can be a challenging time, tailoring activities thoughtfully and sensitively with individuals at the heart of each interaction.
Who is Giggle Visits for:
The children and young people living in two Leeway refuges.
When & Where is Forget Me Not Visitors happening:
Giggle Visits will be taking place at two refuges in Norfolk throughout 2018.
