It's Volunteers' Week! What better time to celebrate all our amazing volunteers?! 🌟

We quite literally couldn't do what we do without them! They are there at every family event we host, raising crucial funds and awareness at every fundraiser, supporting us in the office with counting donations, creating newsletters, managing our caravans, and so much more....

To our volunteers: You don't just give your time, you give our children moments of joy and hope. Your dedication changes lives.

🏃🏻‍♀️ What a success our Run to Run turned out to be on Saturday! We had an amazing 219 people turn up to walk or run the route 🌟

This is the biggest turn out we have ever had for Run to Run and we are incredibly grateful to each and every person for their commitment to supporting our cause, especially as the weather turned out to be so hot ☀️

Thank you also to our incredible team of volunteers and our sponsors and partners for their invaluable support in making the day so special: Sussex Audiology Centre , Coda Pharmacy , Chaffin Works, and the Mayor of Polegate, Stephen Shing.

We'd also like to thank Radio DGH, PGL Windmill Hill, Harvester, Full Range Fitness, and C J Thorne & Co Ltd for sending teams and representatives to take part.

And to Polegate School, thank you for very kindly allowing us the use of their playing field . It made the day so much easier and more comfortable for everyone 🌟

It has been truly heartwarming to see the immense support we have from our local community and it really does mean so much to us.

We will of course share the total raised from the day once we have it, but whatever that total turns out to be, every single penny of it will help us to continue supporting children and families facing the unimaginable challenges of childhood cancer 🎗️

We had a fantastic day at Combe Haven Holiday Park last week at our caravan launch open event 🌟

Thank you to everyone, including the lovely ladies from Enjoolata Foundation, who took the time to come along and see the incredible space we are offering our families for crucial respite breaks.

We were surprised and delighted to have some of the Entertainment Team make their way down along with Rory, George and Annie! What a lovely touch from the Haven team and it really made the children's day 💛

It was a wonderful way to open up our caravan for the summer season ☀️ and we hope our families make many happy memories there in the years to come ❤️
