This year we are running a campaign which we have entitled #Infinityoutandabout and it's all about 'getting out and about' this summer and autumn. With the last 18 months having been a really challenging time for many of our community, we understand that with the easing of restrictions it can be overwhelming, daunting and perhaps just a little uncertain and we wanted to raise awareness of the benefits of getting out and about, even if it's in your local neighbourhood.

You might wonder why we are doing this? Well we are raising awareness and taking part in lots of activities to raise much needed funds for families that need support. We have decided to raise money to support our new parent support groups that we run all year around, as well as raising funds to donate to SASH Charity & Olive's appeal to make the lives of parents a little easier at the most challenging times in some of their lives. Plus we want to be able to say 'thank you' to some of the amazing maternity teams that have supported these families during those times. We have been working with SASH Maternity Voices Partnership to understand where these funds will matter most and we are delighted to be working with SASH Charity to do this.

So, with that in mind, we have been running 'out and about' events for new parents during June, July & August and this will continue through the summer, right up until 31st October 2021. We will be sharing some stories, sharing top tips, ideas for days out and local ideas.

So how can you help us? Well we are asking people to make a 'pledge' to get out and about, perhaps set up your own fundraising effort, raise some funds with your own family and friends or perhaps make a one off donation to the campaign. We will officially open the campaign on Sunday 11th July and closing it on 31st October 2021. Every penny raised really will help.

Here are some of the ways that you can help us:

1 Pledge a donation and get involved!

2 Make a donation as a thank you to Infinity & SASH Charity for your experiences with Bloom or SASH and send us your story.

3 Share our campaign on social media far and wide by tagging us in #infinityoutandabout2021 if you go to a new place, head out for a walk or find a great place to go this summer

3 Get in touch if you would like to undertake a specific challenge and join our Challenge team 2021. Perhaps you have decided to Run Reigate or take part in a fun run, a long walk or even a swim. Let us know!
