We are pleased to be supporting two charities this year:

  • Our usual, PSDS, (Providing Support for families with Down Syndrome – http://psds.info/) who support around 50 families in the area that have children with Downs Syndrome to aid speech & language therapy, occupational & physio therapies, school support & training.
  • A special charity Flighting for the Future, to fund a lovely little boy, Nicholas Stewart (in Reception class at Kingswood School) to get medical testing and treatment for a life-threatening illness over in the US (it is unavailable to him in the UK). His JustGiving page can be found here:
