Saucony London 10k 2026 · 12 July 2026 ·

Sparkles is a small, parent-led charity providing speech and language, physio and occupational therapy to pre-school children with Down’s syndrome living in and around Bucks. We have helped over 100 children make themselves heard in the world, ease their path into childhood and ultimately school.

Story

Hi and thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Sparkles has been an invaluable support to Ava for many years now. Without the incredible therapists and the community Sparkles has provided for us as a family we truly don't believe we'd be in the position we are now. Ava has received incredible and tailored therapy to give her the best possible start to life.

This year Sam and I will be running the Saucony London 10K run to raise much needed funds for this parent-led charity, so if you are able to donate anything at all it would be greatly appreciated. As it would help ensure Sparkles can continue to do their amazing and much needed work.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Sam might have run the London Marathon last year but I haven't run more than 5km since having Ava so this is no mean feat...wish us luck! Huge thanks,

Zoe, Sam, Ava & Finley x
