Story

Save the UK's CharitiesGeneral fundraising has been hit very hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Thousands of fundraising events have been cancelled and many charities, particularly smaller ones, are struggling to maintain services because of this huge reduction in income.This impacts all sectors of society from children to the elderly as well as the vital work in areas such as palliative care, serious diseases, mental health, housing support, food supplies and countless others that charities support.

We found Bobath by chance, and what a great find it was.  Bobath Wales, has been part of our lives since Violet was 4 months old and she recently turned 2! They provide physiotherapy, occupational therapy and speech and language therapy to children.  They have been a great support to myself and Mark and have provided much physio, advice and guidance to Violet which has helped Violet become the little cheeky, smiley Lady she is - know as Lady Vi

Our family will be completing 26 laps of our garden/there will be other 26 challenges happening throughout the day like 26 trips in the wheel barrow - Violet will be joining in and also doing 26 bum lifts which she loves.  We have also roped in friends and family, from Ipswich, Reading, Cardiff and Cwmbran.
