Avolon’s generous donation enabled the Family Support Services to offer Holiday Project days to a larger number of children with an intellectual and physical disability during August 2018. The Holiday Projects offer each child, young person and their families a respite break during the summer holidays. The Holiday projects also provide the opportunity for each child and young person the opportunity to enjoy going on various outings and trips, participation in sports, arts, crafts and activities, and the opportunity to spend time with new and old friends.
