It's hard to believe it's been nearly 8 years since Peeps was founded.

This year has been great for Peeps so far. In May, we held our first ever Conference where over 160 people came together to hear updates within the HIE community.

We are experiencing an increased demand for our support thanks to increased awareness, and now on average have 15 new family referrals each month.

Peeps are proud to currently have just over 640 families that are registered to receive support from us.

There is still so much work we need to do including growing our support services and finding new ways that we can support HIE families.

We'd love you to consider joining The 8 Challenge to help fundraise for Peeps. Be a part of something bigger and help us to celebrate our latest milestone.

You could walk 8,000 steps a day or 80 miles in a month, cycle a certain distance, read 8 books, declutter and sell 80 items in your home.

We want this challenge to be as inclusive and accessible for the little HIEroes and families we support, so we thought of these examples to get involved: 8 minutes a day in a standing frame, or taking 80 supported steps.

Each and every unique challenge is welcome!

For any support with this challenge, please contact jess@peeps-hie.org
