A huge thank you to Stephen James for generously giving up his time to mow and tidy our grounds. Your support and kindness are truly appreciated and make a real difference to our space. We are so grateful for your help!
First Step supports families of children with special needs and/or disabilities in our local community, and we rely on the kindness and generosity of people around us to continue providing this support.
If anyone is able to spare a few hours to help with maintaining our grounds or carrying out general maintenance around our building, we would love to hear from you. Every bit of help is hugely appreciated and goes such a long way in supporting the families we work with. 💙

Meet our incredible runners who are lacing up and taking on the TCS London Marathon 2026 this Sunday in support of First Step! 🏃‍♂️

They’ve powered through early mornings, late nights, rain, and some seriously sore legs - all because they believe in making a difference. Every mile they run helps raise vital funds and awareness for families of babies and young children with special needs and/or disabilities.

Wishing the very best of luck to Billy, Chris, Enzo, Marco, and Paul - we’re so proud of you all! 💙
