What is Barretstown’s Young Adult (YA) Programme?
Our Young Adult Programme, established in 2021is a free residential programme, (including meals and accommodation), is designed specifically for young adults aged 18-24 who are living with or have previously had cancer.
Developed in partnership with the Irish Cancer Society, the weekend combines fun activities with educational and informational workshops to provide you with the knowledge and support you need.
Participation in all sessions is entirely optional, in keeping with our ‘challenge by choice’ philosophy, which is central to all Barretstown therapeutic recreation programmes.
