Our story begins at a small countryside nursery in Benenden, Kent, where Charlotte worked for a number of years together. In May 2013 two gorgeous little boys (Jake and Joe) arrived, and on day one each was assigned a key worker, one of whom happened to be Charlotte.

In May 2014, tragedy struck when the boys lost their father in a drowning accident whilst on holiday in the Jamaican fishing village of Treasure Beach, where the family had spent many previous family holidays. Early one morning, the elder boy then only four, and not yet able to swim was paddling in the shallows when a riptide pulled him out to sea. His father raced into the sea and saved his life but then drowned before his eyes. The tragedy devastated the community of Treasure Beach, who lost a dear friend, and left two young boys fatherless.

This year, we are raising money to rebuild the pool at the sports park after Hurricane Beryl hit and destroyed our pool.
