A hospice for children and young people with life-limiting conditions opening its doors for a day of celebration this weekend.

Rainbows Hospice for Children and Young People is inviting people from across the Burton and South Derbyshire to visit the Loughborough-based facility on Saturday, September 16.

Guests will have the chance to take a look around the hospice, enjoy the gardens, and obtain a sense of how the charity is able to provide vital support to youngsters and their families when they need it most.

There will be plenty to celebrate with the new sensory garden for visitors to enjoy, as well as a vibrant and colourful new reception area.

Rainbows is also extending an invitation for all to come inside and view just what makes the hospice so special, with guided tours of the facilities will take place at regular intervals throughout the day.

There will be live music and dance, arts and crafts stalls, tea and cakes for all – and visitors will have the opportunity to meet the therapy team to try out some activities.

The open day takes place at the hospice, from 10.30am until 3pm on Saturday, at Lark Rise, Loughborough, LE11 2HS. For further details visit www.rainbows.co.uk
