Disney treat is a big hit...

-

YOUNGSTERS with lifelimiti­ng conditions at Rainbows hospice had an early seasonal surprise party – thanks to Disney.

The family entertainm­ent giant provided all the trimmings for a party themed on its latest film short ‘Olaf’s Frozen Adventure’, a follow up to its worldwide success with its feature length animation ‘Frozen’.

The initiative marks a new partnershi­p with Together for Short Lives - the UK charity that supports children’s hospices – with Disney providing a magical themed ‘party in a box’ to Rainbows Hospice.

The magical giftwrappe­d party boxes were packed full of all the special activities, games and decoration­s needed to create a festive party for children and families.

Creating special moments can make a significan­t difference to families caring round the clock for their child. That’s why having all these magical ingredient­s helped create a wonderful day for children and families at Rainbows - to celebrate, come together and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Children and families supported by the Loughborou­gh-based charity were surprised and delighted to open a Disney gift box filled with ‘Olaf’s Frozen Adventure’ goody bags and beautiful bubble balloons.

Sam Herrett, Rainbows Family Support Nurse, said: “It was a fantastic event for our youngsters. Everyone had a great time – and is very excited by Olaf’s latest adventure. We can’t wait to see it.”

The parties took place at children’s hospices across the country as part of a new partnershi­p between The Walt Disney Company in the UK and Together for Short Lives, the UK charity that supports local children’s hospices like Rainbows.

The Partnershi­p celebrates Disney and Together for Short Lives’ shared values and belief in creating precious moments and bringing children and those closest to them together.
