SUMMARY:Visit Santa's Reindeer (bereaved families)
DESCRIPTION:Santa’s reindeer are gearing up for their annual ‘fly-in’ before they head to the North Pole for Christmas! 🎅🦌 \nGet ready to experience the magic of Christmas with Santa’s special helpers on Friday 20 December 2024 at 10am. Meet Santa’s reindeer up close\, take photos\, and enjoy fun games and festive treats! \nThis event is wheelchair friendly\, but a little off roading is required. Please note this is an outside event\, so make sure to wrap up warm. There is parking onsite\, if you can car share then we would recommend that you do. \nFurther instructions \nThe postcode is GU10 2HL. You will see a small island with a tree planted in the middle – just in front of the black metal gates. When you arrive at the magical Silverbeck\, you will see black ornate gates and a buzzer. Be sure to press the buzzer for Silverbeck (not the farm). Wiggle your way down the driveway and keep going towards the barn. \nWe have families arriving after your hour slot as well! There is no ramp into the barn\, a slight step up\, so it might be a wiggle and a jiggle to get wheelchair users in\, but it’s possible! We also recommend wellies and coats are worn. \nPlease save slots for the children\, so if you can manage with one adult ticket and the rest children in your group that would be wonderful – thank you! \nDon’t miss out on this wonderful opportunity to create lasting memories with your loved ones. We hope to see you there!

SUMMARY:Sunrise Trek Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon)
DESCRIPTION:Are you ready for a more rugged challenge? How about scaling one of the UK’s highest mountains in the dark? \nJoin our Sunrise Trek up Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) as our experienced guides lead you on a trek through the night\, reaching the summit in time for sunrise.  This challenge will be a mental and physical test\, but we can promise the reward for completing it\, whilst raising money to support the families we care for\, is worth every step! \nWith very limited space available for this unique experience sign up today and do ‘summit’ amazing in 2025. Everything you need to know can be found in our event guide but please do get in touch if you have any questions. \nItinerary: \n\n\n\nArrival time\n02:04am approx.\n\n\nRegistration\n02:24am approx.\n\n\nWalk start time\n02:24am approx.\n\n\nSunrise time\n06:24am\n\n\nBreakfast\n09:14am approx.\n\n\nDeparture\n12.00pm approx.\n\n\n\nWhat’s included?\nThe event will be organised by SVL Adventures and led by SVL Adventures Mountain Leaders. All walkers will receive an invitation to a Trek Talk and Team Training Walk prior to the event\, the opportunity to book onto our organised transport\, a complimentary breakfast\, T-shirt and bespoke Sunrise Trek medal. \n‘Exciting\, thrilling\, humbling\, challenging – all at once! I feel like everything went perfectly’. \nWho you’re helping\nStaying up all night and then climbing a mountain is a tough ask for anyone – but for many of the families we support\, being awake all night is an all too common experience. Children like Imogen have complex medical conditions requiring 24 hour care\, and often parents are the only ones able to provide it. That’s why your support is so vital. \n‘I am awestruck withy the organisers\, the staff guides\, but also the people. It’s very inspirational!’ \nKey information\nWith your bravery\, courage and determination we are hoping to raise £20\,000 from the Sunrise Trek Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) challenge to support our work helping children with life-limiting conditions and their families. In order to do this we hope that each of you will commit to raising a minimum of £250. Those reaching this target will be rewarded with a beanie hat – a valuable item on the kit list! \nFinally tick this challenge off your bucket list\, whilst raising money for babies\, children and young people with life-limiting conditions. Places are limited\, so sign up today! \nThe event is open to ages 7+. Under 18s need to be accompanied by a parent/guardian. We ask that parents/guardians make a judgment on whether the younger children can cope with the lack of sleep & the energy levels required to complete the trek. \nPlease note that dogs are unable to join the Snowdon Sunrise Trek. \nIf you need any more information about the event or help with your fundraising please do not hesitate to contact the team at events@shootingstar.org.uk. \n‘Another excellent event by SSCH\, a phenomenal experience\, and to anyone interested I’d say do it\, do it\, do it’
