Rawsome Dino Day at Brook House

Brook House recently held a “Rawsome” Dino Day.

The event was to help raise awareness for the charity Contact, which supports the families of children with additional needs.

The staff and young people had lots of fun and games, with dinosaur-themed activities. And, of course, a Dino Day wouldn’t be complete without food!

There was a barbecue with dinosaur-themed favourites, such as dino nuggets, dino-shaped sandwiches, and dino-shaped cookies. We also had plenty of drinks, including juice boxes and dinosaur-shaped popsicles.

The children had a blast at Dino Day while raising much-needed funds for Contact. We would like to thank Jeni Sugden and all of the young people at Brook House for organising such a fantastic event.
