Burn Support Group were extremely happy that the Annual Women's Burn Retreat (2020) was still able to take place at the stunning Castaway Resort.
It was with good fortune that the event was run over four days, from 4 - 7 November.
Unfortunately, changes had to be made as the date was postponed, due to the very obvious reason our ladies that had booked from Australia were unable to attend, we hope the opportunity will be opened up for you again 2021! It is always amazing to receive such support, time and energy that is provided from individuals and organisations that attend this event and this year was no exception, with tremendous guest speakers, activities and pampering sessions. None of this is possible without the generosity of sponsors and donations received, of which the Burn Support Group are extremely appreciative. On behalf of all those ladies attending, we wish to extend a sincere "thank you" for all contributions in making this the fabulous, inspiring, enjoyable and confidence building retreat that is it!!
