diddi dance Thanks You for your Donations During Children’s Activities Week

by

Last week we took part in the Children’s Activities Week with the theme #WatchMeFly.

We want to thank you for all your kind donations that will make such an impact to support the incredible cause of Caudwell Children. Your contributions provide vital support and opportunities for autistic and disabled children. Every donation, no matter the size, can make a difference in their lives and every penny raised goes directly to support the children and their families.

There’s still time to make a donation via our fundraising page if you would like to.

Thank you for your continued support.

Here are some pictures of our wonderful flying diddi dancers and teachers taking part throughout the week.

Children’s Mental Health Week 6-12 February 2023

by

It’s Children’s Mental Health Week 2023 with Place2Be  💛

This year’s theme is ‘Let’s Connect’.

Let’s Connect is about making meaningful connections for all, during Children’s Mental Health Week, and beyond. People thrive in communities and this connection is vital for our wellbeing.

When we have healthy connections – from family, friends and others – this can support our mental health and our sense of wellbeing. diddi dance believes that keeping physically active and moving to music allows you to express yourself, and the endorphins it releases creates positive emotions and feelings which promote emotional emotional and mental health in all ages. Our classes give families the opportunity to do this together while socialising and making new friends too!

diddi dance Teams Up with RED January

by

diddi dance are proud to be teaming up with RED January, a nationwide movement for mental wellbeing, led by the community, for the community.

Research shows that inactivity increases in the winter and this is linked to reports of lower mood and energy levels. Each year thousands of people across the UK sign up to challenge themselves to do some sort of movement every day in January to beat the winter blues. Participants are encouraged to choose activities that work best for them and their lifestyle.
