Harry's House Mobile Retreat

We are excited to announce Harry’s House Mobile Retreat, a new initiative of the Harry Meyn Foundation to expand the support services that we provide to families that have a child living with cancer and families that are grieving the loss of their child to cancer. It will be based on a 6 Birth Avida (Australian Winnebago) Ceduna Motorhome that the families can use for a week at a time at no cost.
The motorhome is well equipped with a kitchen, hot/cold water, wall oven, microwave oven, cooktop, TV, DVD player, CD player, shower, toilet, dining/lounge area, BBQ, air conditioning, bedding for 6, outdoor awning and outdoor table/chairs. Bikes will also be provided with a bike rack fitted to the rear of the vehicle.
Our vision is to create a unique and effortless holiday for the families to enjoy during a very difficult time in their lives.
