Rare-I-Tea Party

Hosted by Cambridge Rare Disease Network

18 February 2023
Eddington Avenue Cambridge CB3 1AA, Cambridge, United Kingdom

Description


Cambridge Rare Disease Network (CamRARE) invite you to join us for tea and cakes to celebrate this year’s Rare Disease Day. We’re delighted to hold this friends and families event at the wonderful Storey’s Field Centre.
WHO IS THE EVENT FOR?
Everyone! This public event is open to all – children, families, those affected by rare conditions and those working with them, students, company representatives, scientists, healthcare professionals, and friends of CamRARE. Everyone’s welcome!
WHAT’S ON?
There will be refreshments and cakes for sale. Gluten free and vegetarian diets are catered for.
Get stuck into sensory and craft activities, or join in accessible indoor games with John Willis from Power2Inspire. Make edible DNA models with jelly babies (you can eat them after!), or take part in our fun, rare quiz.
Visit the CamRARE stand and learn about our community work. Meet members of our Unique Feet group, apply for a rare bear if your child has a rare or undiagnosed condition and sign up for our pilot Rare Patient ‘”This is Me” passport trial.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
Entry is free, although we encourage attendees to make an appropriate donation to support our Unique Feet community activities. Refreshments can be bought via card payment or cash.
