Story

As you probably know, Teddy has been supported with his speech and language (as well as physio and OT) by the wonderful charity Sparkles. It provides the BEST therapy and support, especially in those early years when we all felt a little lost. Teddy can talk now. Would he be able to talk without Sparkles? Who knows but I know it helped!!! We have made great friends there and it will always be special to us.

However, Sparkles is in a bit of trouble. It is entirely reliant on fundraising to keep going and is solely parent run. With Covid and the cost of living crisis things have been tough and sparkles is in real danger of going under.

To kick off our fundraising,

Teddy, along with his sisters Lily and Sophie,

his cousins Harry and Olivia

and his friends Elliot and Erin

will be doing a sponsored LITTER PICK. How’s that for mum points, charity and cleaning the community 😂😂.

So…please click here and donate anything you can for the kids.

Do it for the kids people. They need you. Keep them talking.
