Thanks to everyone who attended our AGM in April, especially parent carers giving up their precious time on a sunny day …we were marking 10 years of PlayPeace and 3 1/2 years of being a charity!
We are passionate in our mission to continue to grow our charity as a family led force for change through innovative services informed by those who need them, and by changing the outcomes for families of children and young people with additional support needs. We are just getting started !!!
The same weekend we had 29 walkers taking part in the Glasgow Kiltwalk raising over £10,000. The aches and pains and tender toes were all worth it and we are grateful to everyone who took part and donated. We have a few ideas for how we would like to use the funds for something exciting for our families in the early part of next year.
We have seen a massive increase in new families joining and delighted to say we now welcome over 150 families in Lanarkshire, taking part in our play sessions, parent carers getting access to Peer information and support and Carer Breather activities for some much needed time out from your caring role.
We have had a busy few months with our Carer Breather programme and delighted to have had our first Men Only fun night out at Top Golf in Glasgow. While all our Carer Breather activities are open to all, we definitely want to continue offering more opportunities for dads, carers, grandparents to get together in a more safe “man friendly” environment!
We are delighted to have been allocated 120 VIP tickets for Dreamnight 2026 at Blair Drummond Safari Park on Friday 5th June. This is a very special event for children and families to enjoy the safari park in a relaxed and welcoming environment where the Safari park stays open from 6-9pm for a very few selected charities and closed to the public. Watch this space for the photos of what is sure to be a memory making evening.
As we get ever closer to the end of the school term, we look forward to a busy schedule of a “Schools Out” party and weekly trips for a selection of adventures throughout the Summer Holidays. Keep a look out on our Facebook page and WhatsApp event group for the latest announcements and how to book.
