International Rare Disease Day, Dubai Creek Park

At the invitation of Dubai Health Authority Action Care staff and volunteers came together to provide a fun and entertaining afternoon for the 200 families attending International Rare Disease Day at Dubai Creek Park.
 
The children enjoyed facepainting, arts and crafts station, balloons, as well as the interactive games. Special consideration was made so that the children with rare diseases and special needs could join in and enjoy the games and activities along with their families.

The MOVE program gives us ideas about our future. We learned how to make CVs and list our key skills, languages and experience, and how to be confident at job interviews. The trainers inspired us to try — to study hard and work and we can be professionals.
