Thank you to everyone who joined us for another unforgettable Halloween party. It was so lovely to see the children having such an amazing time together, making memories, showing off their incredible costumes, and filling the evening with laughter and fun.

A huge thank you to everyone at Dreamdrops and Ascent Café for helping to create such a magical evening. ❤️

We are absolutely delighted to share that Dreamdrops has been chosen to be one of the local causes supported by Dunelm’s Delivering Joy Christmas Tree! 🎁✨

From the 13 October, Dunelm’s (Huntingdon) festive Delivering Joy campaign returns for its seventh year, bringing communities together to give gifts to children and families who might otherwise go without this Christmas.

🎅How you can help:
🎄Choose a tag from the Christmas tree in store.
🎄Buy or make the gift requested on the tag.
🎄Place it in an unsealed gift bag.
🎄Drop it back into the Dunelm Huntingdon store.

Every single gift, no matter how big or small, can help bring a little extra joy and magic to a child this Christmas. ✨

We’d like to say a huge thank you to Dunelm for selecting our charity and to everyone who takes a tag, donates a gift, shares our post or helps spread the word.

Together, we can help make Christmas a little brighter for children across Huntingdonshire. 💜🎄

A very special thank you!

Everyone at Dreamdrops Children’s Charity would like to say a huge and heartfelt thank you to Simplify Conveyancing and Property Services for their incredibly generous donation of £2,500.

We would also like to give a very special thank you to Jessica Moreau for her wonderful and continued support of Dreamdrops. Jessica, your kindness, enthusiasm, and ongoing commitment to our charity are truly appreciated. Having people like you championing Dreamdrops and the work we do means more than we can say.

Our Dreamdrops Awards Evening gave us the opportunity to recognise and celebrate some remarkable young people and individuals whose stories demonstrate inspiration, courage, determination and the strength to overcome challenges.

It was an evening filled with smiles, pride and some very special moments as awards and certificates were presented by the Mayor of Huntingdon, Cllr Patrick Kadewere.

We were delighted to recognise Molly, Xanthe, Aimee, and Lilly, each of whom should be incredibly proud of what they have achieved. Their certificates represent far more than a piece of paper, they reflect the effort, commitment, personal development, and the determination to embrace opportunities and overcome challenges.

A particularly special Unsung Hero Award was presented to Hannah, celebrating someone whose contribution and qualities deserve to be celebrated, even though they may not always receive the recognition they deserve.

We were also delighted to present Nicola with the Dreamdrops Inspiration Award, acknowledging the positive difference she makes and the inspiration she provides to others.

A big thank you to the Ascent Cafe who received the Inclusion Award for their work in supporting young people with work experience.

One of the most important things we can do at Dreamdrops is recognise achievement in all its forms. Success isn't always about being the fastest, the strongest or coming first. Sometimes the greatest achievements come from finding the courage to try, overcoming something that once seemed impossible, helping somebody else, or simply refusing to give up.

Every achievement matters and every story deserves to be celebrated.

Our sincere thanks to the Mayor of Huntingdon, Cllr Patrick Kadewere, for joining us and helping make the presentations so memorable, and to everyone who helped make the evening possible.

Most importantly, congratulations to all those we celebrated. We are extremely proud of you and hope you are equally proud of yourselves.

Dreamdrops was delighted to support the Ascent Café Summer Programme for SEND children, helping to provide creative, inclusive activities throughout the holidays.

One highlight was a pottery‑painting session with Dear Freya, where the children designed their own mugs, a session described as “absolutely incredible” and “heartwarming”.

We’re proud to help make opportunities like this possible, supporting SEND young people to build confidence, try new activities, make friends, and create happy memories.

Thank you to Ascent Café, Dear Freya, and everyone who made the programme such a success and to all who support Dreamdrops.

Dreamdrops was delighted to once again hold our annual Ladybird Boat Trip for SEND children, giving the children and their families the opportunity to enjoy a very special day out together.

With beautiful sunshine, plenty to see along the river including some rather elegant swans and lots of happy faces on board, it was a lovely opportunity for everyone to relax, enjoy the surroundings and simply have fun.

For Dreamdrops, days like this are about so much more than a boat trip. They are about creating happy experiences, special moments and lasting memories for children and families who deserve them.

Our sincere thanks go to everyone who helped make the day possible, and to all those who continue to support Dreamdrops. Your generosity enables us not only to provide specialist equipment, but also to create experiences like this for SEND children and their families.

We hope everyone who joined us had as wonderful a time as we did. We are already looking forward to the next one!

A Heartfelt Thank You from Dreamdrops

We would like to say a very sincere thank you to everyone who has donated to Dreamdrops through our JustGiving page.
Every single donation, no matter how large or small, means a great deal to us. Behind every contribution is someone who has chosen to help us make a difference to children and families in our local community, and we never take that generosity for granted.

Dreamdrops is here to support children who are unwell, have additional needs, or who simply need a little extra help during difficult times, as well as their families and the organisations that care for and support them.

Your donations enable us to help in so many ways. From specialist and medical equipment to toys, sensory resources, and practical items; from supporting hospital children's services and community projects to funding activities, days out and special experiences - it is all about bringing a little more comfort, happiness, and support into a child's life.

Sometimes what we provide is something practical. Sometimes it creates an opportunity a child might not otherwise have had. And sometimes it is simply about putting a smile on a child's face at a time when they and their family need it most.

That is what your donations make possible.

To everyone who has donated, fundraised for us, shared our JustGiving page, or encouraged others to support Dreamdrops, thank you. You are an important part of everything we can achieve.

On behalf of the trustees and volunteers at Dreamdrops, and most importantly the children and families we are privileged to support, thank you for your kindness and continued generosity.

August Tuesdays have officially become Dreamdrops fishing days!

Our young anglers, past participants and this year’s Award duo, came together at Rectory Farm for a month of unforgettable summer sessions.

Warm weather, big smiles, and some cracking catches made every week feel like a mini adventure.

Roger Adams from The Fly Fishing Academy said it best: “Where did August go?” and with Aimee Bradshaw comparing the excitement to a rollercoaster, it’s clear these sessions were something special.
