Summer festival of Lebenshilfe: insights into the world of diversity!

On Saturday, July 5, 2025, the summer festival of Lebenshilfe in Schwäbisch Gmünd will be a very special event for the entire region. From 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., the facility opens its gates under the motto "A look behind the scenes". The aim of this event is to give guests an insight into the living environment of people with disabilities and to promote a valuable exchange. A highlight will be the tour of the Bruno-Christmann-Haus, a dormitory with three living groups, where information about the life and everyday life of the residents is conveyed.

The tours take place at 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. and last about 20 minutes. Visitors can learn more about the supportive offers of Lebenshilfe. The event also promises a colorful supporting program with culinary delights and a personal exchange. For creative minds, the “strong maker mobile” of the adult education center (VHS) will be on site and offer various art and creative offers.

summer festivals as appreciation

The importance of summer festivals is also evident in other cities in Baden-Württemberg. On June 27, 2025, another summer festival took place in the Kassel region, where a colorful hands -on program and musical performances were waiting for visitors. Lebenshilfe has established a tradition at various locations to honor these festivals who have been part of the organization for many years. At a summer party in Schramberg-Waldmössingen and Rottweil, 24 clients were recently honored for at least 10 years of belonging. Over half of the jubilees have even been there for more than 20 years, which underlines the long -term commitment and the positive development of people.

A client has been part of life aid for 45 years, which underlines the impressive history of this organization. Workshop manager Markus Ettwein and Manuel Preuss presented the anniversaries of documents and gifts. The honors took place in the best weather after grilling together and then coffee and cake were served for the relatives. The day was rounded off by a varied entertainment program, in which students from the Schramberg secondary school organized a sports and game course and dance groups under the direction of Susanne Schneider-Schulz and Danceloft Rottweil.

This shows that the summer festivals are not only a platform for the appreciation of long -standing members, but also create a place of encounter and coexistence. Lebenshilfe lives from diversity and commitment, and the summer festival in Schwäbisch Gmünd will be another step in this wonderful direction.
