Friendships at Sternenbrücke

At Sternenbrücke, families meet people who have had similar experiences. This gives rise to conversations that need no lengthy explanations, encounters that foster a sense of connection, and friendships that often last well beyond their stay.

In the latest issue of ‘Sternenbrücke Aktuell’, we report on why these connections are so important for many families and what role encounters, shared experiences and mutual understanding play in this.

When encounters turn into friendships

Katharina and Antonina explain just how valuable such connections can be. They met through a clinical trial for a medication. Today, their families are linked by far more than just their children’s shared diagnosis. In this interview, they explain why connecting with other affected families is so valuable and what role Sternenbrücke plays in this.

Fathers’ Week: A space for discussion

By organising a special week just for fathers and their unwell children, we have created a safe space for meeting, sharing experiences and gaining fresh inspiration. Through joint boxing training, in the stone-carving workshop and in conversations with other fathers, participants were able to share experiences and gain new perspectives.
