With 40+ people attending, it was a great catch-up for the children before Camp 2020, with the added fun of face painting by Claire Lenaghan, a surprise Xmas gift, and the ice cream truck with Atlesh Sharma providing soft serve ice cream.  Thanks also to the Spit Roast Catering Company.

Parents, burn survivors new and old shared stories, celebrated the end of a year and looking forward to a healthy, happy new decade.

Burn Support Group wishes to thank all those who have contributed in many ways to the success of a busy and constructive year.  It is a pleasure to see the increase in number of those attending the Survivor Sundays and the many other events throughout the year.

Hi All,

I would like to say a huge thank you… Thank you all for your support throughout 2018/2019 and for making the Burn Support Charitable Trust the mighty presence it is today.  To you all, the volunteers including the patrons, office Staff, Board members, Trustees, Ambassadors, all the burn survivors and survivors’ families and on to the sponsors who have made the Burn Support Group an amazing resource for all those in need.

The last few weeks, with the White Island eruption, has more than likely stirred more than a few emotions and feelings of dread among you, but as you have done in the past and future, the survivors from this incident will also rise from the ashes just like the mighty phoenix.

The Burn Support Charitable Trust needs to hold their heads high; as a support group, you punch well above your weight and size compared to other countries and organisations.  The amount of support you provide, resources, education and donations to the burn’s wards of many hospitals for equipment and training is invaluable.

Enjoy your Christmas and New Year, and stay safe.

Kia Kaha,
Peter Sharp
