Helen's Rainbow Day

Kids Planet is raising money for DYRK1A UK Community
In memory of Helen

Helen's Rainbow Day · 29 April 2026

The charity help fund an annual event that connects DYRK1A individuals and their families with interested professionals. In addition to our families gaining more of an understanding around the medical aspects, traits, latest research and therapies from the specialist speakers who will attend and present during the event we are also able to use the conference to establish and provide knowledge to them and help learn about the challenges our DYRK1a children and young people have in life. Securing funding helps ensure that as many families as possible are able to benefit from this event by being able to pay for the conference facilities during the meet up for all the speakers and the families attending. This will help encourage attendance of families who would otherwise not feel able to financially.

Story

In April 2024, our little friend, Helen, became a rainbow in the sky. In her memory, we are raising money for the DYRK1A UK Community, a charity that supports individuals with DYRK1A syndrome and their families.

On Wednesday 29th April we will be wearing bright, rainbow colours and embarking on a sponsored walk around Lymm Dam! We will also have a bake sale and a raffle.

The funds raised for this charity are primarily used to hold annual meet-ups that allow families to learn more about the condition from professional speakers. The meet-ups also allow families the opportunity to socialise, enjoy family fun activities, and share valuable experiences and advice.
