Healthy Hips
Campaign by Steps (RCN 1094343)
It is estimated that worldwide 15% of children are born with some type of hip instability. Join us in this year's Hip Dip Swimathon! Raise money and awareness for those affected by hip problems.

Story

Billie was diagnosed with hip dysplasia at a year old when she began to walk and we noticed she had an odd wee waddle.  She had to undergo several surgeries and had months wearing full leg cast's as part of the correction. In the United Kingdom up to 15% of children are born with some type of hip instability.Steps work so hard in order to support children, parents and adults suffering with hip problems. We are always there to support, whether it's on the end of a phone, via social media or by email. We answer thousands of questions a day related to hip issues. We also take part in lots of research and of course give out hundreds of free car seats to families every year so that they can continue to get out and about and without the additional expense of buying a new car seat. We also supply hospitals and doctors lots of free information packs to supply to parents who are perhaps just on the beginning of their journey. Join us in a 'Hip Dip' Swimathon and get swimming for healthy hips! Keep Steps running so we can continue all the good work we do.
