The Event
The Family Activity day is a time for families and grown ups affected by cleft, to enjoy time together, to chat over tea and coffee, to join in the annual raffle and above all to have fun.
This year the Cleft Lip and Palate Association is delighted to announce we are returning to Lilliput Adventure Centre in Mullingar. We have great memories from our previous visits.
Lilliput has a lot to offer, it a has trail through the bog, kayaking, climbing walls, archery and more. To mix things up a bit there are also woodland walks and treasure hunts. We will be planning something for all ages and levels of enthusiasm!
More Information
Meet at 9:30am and finish around 4:00pm.

What can I bring into the event?
Bring sunblock, raincoats, the usual for Irish weather. The activities are outdoor and range from strolling, to kayaking and climbing. Wear sturdy footwear and clothes to have fun in.
Clothes worn on the 'bog trail' will discolour so bring old clothes that you don't want to wear again. Bring old runners too. There are showers for afterwards. Bring towels, dry clothes and something to bring the wet clothes home again. This might sound like work but the bog is the best of fun!
Bring a picnic. Weather allowing we can eat outdoors. There is a good option for indoors if we need it too. Hot water will be on hand for teas and coffees.
The Centre is reasonably buggy friendly except around the bog .
Who can I bring into the event?
Please bring your child (or yourself if you are grown up), brothers and sisters also. If your child would prefer to bring a best friend instead, that is okay too. We love to see Grandparents. If you are an adult and want to bring some friends, or indeed your own children please do. The Family Activity Day has something for everybody.
How much does the event cost ?
The Family Day is an important part of the work of the Cleft Lip and Palate Association. The event is subsidised by donations and fundraising from families. We are suggesting a €20 per family contribution towards the costs but if the contribution is putting 'petrol in the tank' in order to get here that is fine too.
We run a raffle also which is always fun. Bring some cash for the tickets. As contactless payments have become a thing, we have a 'Sum Up' as a backup. If you can help out with prizes please let us know info@cleft.ie or bring along on the day
