The next children’s event is the Teddy Bears’ Picnic, Fundamental Skills Workshop and Manic Marathon Fun day at Stoke Mandeville on the 21st July. Please do book in advance as we have had to cancel events in the past due to everyone leaving their registrations to the last minute.


Teddy Bears’ Picnic and Mini Sports Day

Bring your teddy along for a picnic on our Family Fun Day at Stoke Mandeville Stadium on Saturday 21st July. We are welcoming all our little people and their teddies for a mini sports day and to join in the Fundamental Skills Workshop if they wish. There will also be face painting and a climbing wall. This picnic is for families of young children with limb loss or limb difference and adult amputees with young children.


Fundamental Skills Workshop

Take part and learn and develop skills to help your child take part in school PE, increase their confidence and self-esteem, have fun and meet other children with a similar disability. Your child will be taught how to: Throw, Hop, Catch, Kick, Run, Jump and Skip. All core skills to support your child to engage in physical activity and sport at school and in the community. Each child will receive a Fundamental Skills badge and certificate if they can achieve the appropriate level. All exercises are adapted for amputees and children with limb difference.


Manic MaraFun

This is where the adults join in either for fun or to help raise the money so that we can run this and other events. Our team fundraising target is £10,000. This is a social and fundraising event for families. Adults and children can join LimbPower for a mile or more of this fun filled MaraFun and raise much needed funds. Fancy dress is optional. You don’t have to take part in the MaraFun to enjoy this fabulous family day out. Music and children’s activities, including a climbing wall and Fundamental Skills Workshop.
