About Blue Cabin

​

Blue Cabin supports care-experienced children and young people to build meaningful relationships with the people and organisations in their lives, by offering them regular opportunities to play, create, connect, and experience joy together.

 

All of Blue Cabin’s work is underpinned with an awareness of trauma and the impact this can have, and the team specialises in creating safe spaces - both online and in-person - where creative activities take place.

 

Blue Cabin’s participants report increased confidence, improved wellbeing and that their relationships with others are stronger as a result of taking part in activities in a safe, supportive environment.
