During lockdown the girls have been creating little Covid Critters from old bits of wood and metal found around the house, and some pieces kindly donated by local residents.

These for us are a memory of our time in isolation, a time when we have had the opportunity to appreciate all that we usually are able to do. 

For Maddie, gymnastics is her life and without Chelmsford Gymnastics Club, lockdown would have been so much harder. Daily challenges, photo poses and competitions are set and each week, her coach organises 3 live conditioning sessions to enable her and her fellow gymnasts to keep their strength and flexibility up, until such time as they are allowed back in the gym.

We hope that others will like them too and be willing to provide a home to their own little covid critter.

Thank you for your donation - it means a lot to us and a huge amount to Maddie xx
