RNPS and the Palestinian Circus concluded ten relief sessions at Star Mountain Rehabilitation Center as part of "MARAH" Project

RED NOSES Palestine (RNPS) and the Palestinian Circus (PC) concluded ten relief sessions at Star Mountain Rehabilitation Center as part of "MARAH" Project.

Today we concluded ten relief sessions delivered to the dedicated staff of Star Mountain Rehabilitation Center. In these sessions, artists from the Palestinian Circus and healthcare clowns from RNPS offered creative, non-traditional tools to support caregivers, especially mothers of children and rehabilitation center staff.

These sessions aimed not only to equip participants with practical techniques but also to provide a safe and supportive space where they could express emotions and share personal experiences.

The final session was led by our healthcare clowns, Mays Assi and Amneh Al-Khreishi, and featured participant-led performances that combined humour and circus, empowering caregivers with new ways to strengthen their communication with children with disabilities.

Participants shared their joy and appreciation for the sessions, highlighting its positive impact—especially in improving communication and breaking down barriers between the staff and the children.

“Every exercise was meaningful for both my work and personal growth. We were able to adapt and simplify the activities to match the abilities of each specialist. I always try to clear my mind when I enter the room and stay fully present in the session. You truly offered us a space to release and recharge. What I loved most were the games, the way the trainers organised and led the session, and the warm, uplifting atmosphere in the room.”Said a participant.

It is worth noting that similar sessions are also being held at two additional rehabilitation centers in Ramallah: Jasmine Charitable Society and Nahda Women’s Association.
