Constellation Healthcare becomes Access & Inclusion Partner for the 2025 Baboró International Arts Festival for Children

Baboró is delighted to welcome Constellation Healthcare as the 2025 festival’s Access & Inclusion Partner.

As Access and Inclusion Partner, Constellation Healthcare will be supporting the presentation of relaxed events, sensory-friendly shows and a performance exclusively for children with additional needs and their families.  

Paul Bellew, Director of Operations at Constellation Healthcare, said: “I’m delighted Constellation Healthcare is Baboró’s Access & Inclusion Partner for 2025. We’re committed to celebrating and supporting neurodiverse children and their families. Making the arts more inclusive is a meaningful way to show the depth of that commitment.”

Constellation Healthcare is one of Ireland’s leading providers of neurodiversity assessments and supports, working with thousands of families every year. They support children and adolescents from 2 years of age with developmental, communication and behavioural needs through an integrated suite of services that connects assessment, diagnosis, intervention and follow-up support.

"We’re thrilled to welcome Constellation Healthcare as Baboró's Access & Inclusion Partner for 2025. As a rights based organisation, we believe in the right of every child to participate in the arts on their terms. This support helps Baboró break down barriers to attendance, creating programmes where everyone is welcomed, heard and represented in the festival.", Aislinn Ó hEocha, Executive Artistic Director of Baboró.

Constellation Healthcare believe in celebrating every child’s unique mind and helping them reach their full potential. They work in close partnership with families and public sector teams to ensure each child receives the right support – at the right time – to thrive. Constellation Healthcare’s services help families move forward with clarity and enable public sector partners to plan and deliver services more effectively.
