Our first grandparents' week
A special premiere
From September 1 to 6, we had the privilege of experiencing a very special premiere at Sternenbrücke: our first Grandparents Week. During this time, we welcomed mainly grandparents with their grandchildren who are suffering from life-shortening illnesses. It was a week full of loving encounters, heartfelt moments, and precious memories.
Time for closeness and shared memories
While the parents were able to spend time with their siblings at home, the week gave the grandparents the opportunity to be there for their grandchildren in a special way. The program was tailored to the needs of our guests: from cozy coffee hours and open opportunities for exchange to soothing pampering treatments and joint excursions to therapy taster sessions and a small photo shoot. Every single moment was marked by encounters, affection, and shared memories.
For many grandparents, it was their first visit to Sternenbrücke. It was all the more moving to see how they appreciated the exchange with other affected individuals, how they strengthened each other, and how lasting connections were formed.
