Florijn Fun Day 2021
Florijn Care hosts a free, annual summer fun day for service users, who are actively involved in various aspects of planning and delivery, including agreeing a theme and designing specially commissioned tops. In 2021, it was ‘Hawaii’, with yellow T-shirts and Blue hoodies for all staff and service users to wear. Typically, we hire bouncy castles, have a BBQ, do various races, have a tug-of-war and play football, rounders and (safe!) archery.
The day typically runs from 11:00 am and ends at 17:00 pm and this is the 2021 order of events.
