As a group of Registered Childminders in the Vale of Glamorgan we are taking part in a Mindees March (walkathon) to raise money for The Oliver Steeper Foundation.

Oliver aged 9 months, sadly died in a nursery at the Jelly Beans Nursery in Ashford in September 2021 after choking on pasta we knew we had to create a legacy for Oliver to prevent other parents from having to live through the nightmare we have endured.

The Oliver Steeper Foundation was created mid 2023 with the aims of providing a life saving medical device called LifeVac into all registered early years childcare settings. As of January 2025, we have distributed over 1000 devices across the United Kingdom.

We are raising money together for The Oliver Steeper Foundation to donate more LifeVac anti choking devices to registered childcare settings.
