Anna - a book by Karin Kennedy

The Free Spirit Trust, founded in 1997, created a holistic Caribbean Adventure project to inspire teenagers with cancer. This page is dedicated to Anna’s dream and the free spirit teenagers who followed in her footsteps.

“Free Spirit is a new way of being. Rather than dwelling on the illness it’s a way of living beyond it. It’s important to pursue your dreams; it’s using the illness as an incentive to live your life fully. Now.” Anna “I feel a lot more alive knowing that even though I’m ill I can still help others, and because I’m ill I can feel empathy for other people who are ill.” Anna

“It has helped me discover the free spirit within myself. It was the most wonderful time I have ever had”

Benjamin de Garis 17

Sadly, The Free Spirit Trust no longer exists today due to spiralling insurance costs and a changed political climate. However the heart of it lives on as an inspiration.
