The siblings enjoyed a range of activities including sailing, stand up paddleboarding, windsurfing, kataking, windsurfing and raft building. All the siblings had an amazing weekend and many of the parents enjoyed a drink at the Harbours Edge cafe on the Sunday afternoon watching their children having a fantastic time on the water.

Rockley has hosted a series of Sibling Weekends for Julia's House, an initiative set up by Julia's House which enables the siblings of the children with life-limited illnesses to enjoy a short break away from home and basically have fun. Rockley's Managing Director Pip Woods said; "Supporting Julia's House in this way is something Rockley feels very passionate about and the reward is watching the children enjoy themselves out on the water."

Maria Carroll, Sibling worker for Julia's House said; "Once again the sun shone and so did your team. We had 17 young people with us and they all had an amazing time."

She went on to say; "Our families are so grateful for the opportunity the siblings get and for the time it gives them to do other things. Two sets of parents commented that they had made plans for the Saturday night, something they never get a chance to do."

Rockley will continue its support of Julia's House this October as many of the staff embark on the Bournemouth Half Marathon.
