Tomorrow is the Guildford Inflatable 5k, Stoke Park, Guildford 🧡 A fantastic day filled with energy and community spirit. Every bounce and laugh supports the vital work we do at Challengers. Come say hi! #TeamOrange #InclusivePlay

We’ve kicked off Challengers Gala Dinner at @FarnhamCastle - big thank you to our wonderful MC and host @jimconey

Today the Public Accounts Committee, (@CommonsPAC) has published a new report on support for young people with special educational needs and disabilities, with MPs calling for reform to the system. You can read our response to the report below: thesun.co.uk/news/32805784/…

So far, we’ve raised an incredible £48,672 - thank you so much to our supporters. But to reach our goal we still need to raise £20,664 (which will be doubled to £41,328) before 12pm this Tuesday 10th December. Will you help us get there? 🧡 Donate now - ow.ly/9fkm50UmnBe

This year, our Big Give goal is ambitious but essential: to raise £45,000, which, when matched, will grow to £90,000. These funds will enable us to provide 300 days of critical respite care for families of disabled children. buff.ly/3AQBXiy
