diddi dance Colchester gets some great coverage!

September 15, 2015 by Rebecca

diddi CharlotteAfter just opening her diddi dance this month, Charlotte Foxley of diddi dance Colchester, Maldon, Halstead & West Tendring has already received some great press about her new diddi dance her hopes for the future of it!

We couldn’t be more happy for Charlotte after having just launched the area and her classes!

 

Here is an excerpt from the article:

“I strongly believe toddlers need to get active and socialise and our classes are a great way for them to meet other children and join in with as much as they want to and in time they will become confident and learn what is going to happen next.”

Charlotte is also hoping youngsters with learning disabilities will go along and she is trying to set up special after school sessions.

Charlotte’s eldest son, Charlie, who is now eight, has special needs and is a pupil at Lexden Springs School in Colchester.

She said: ” When Charlie was three, I took him to a class and it was awful. He wasn’t walking and there was no understanding so I left. I wouldn’t want another mum to feel like that. I am passionate about setting up a diddi dance class for special needs children of school age as an after school activity in Colchester. This is in the early stages of planning and I am currently looking at venues and talking to other mums to see how we could get this to work. I understand how difficult it is to join clubs and activities in the community and how often we cannot, as their needs are such it is hard to participate. But I would really encourage any parents and carers who have a child under five with special needs to come along to one of the classes during the day. I understand what it’s like so hopefully they will feel able to come along.”

 

If you live in the area please have a read of the full article here!

diddi dance West Kent raises money for Sands

August 11, 2015 by Rebecca

Franchisee Angie Jury of diddi dance Royal Tunbridge Wells, Sevenoaks, Hawkhurst & Surrounding held a fantastic fundraiser for Sands, a stillbirth and neonatal death charity, earlier this month. Angie herself sadly had to go through the loss of her unborn son recently and wanted to give back to the charity that offered her so much support during that time.

The ‘diddi dance Summer Party in aid of Sands’ was held on Saturday, 1 August and was a sell out event – with all ticket and raffle sales going to the charity.

Prior to the party it received some great coverage from the Courier, a local newspaper:

diddi Angie - Courier

And the the event itself was a hit and everyone who attended had a great time – especially when it came time to diddi dance!

diddi Sands 2 diddi Sands 1

Angie had the following to say about it all:

The party was a sell out with over 40 families turning out in their summer clothes to dance to the reggae beat, share picnics, munch on yummy cake and buy tickets for the raffle which included top donated prizes from local businesses. It was very healing and humbling to be able to organise such a fun filled event in memory of such a tragic loss of my son Robin and help support other parents who face the same awful circumstances. We raised over £420 on the day and added to donations made by customers, friends and family the total raised in Robin’s memory for Sands UK is £1170!

We couldn’t be happier for Angie having such a successful fundraiser and raising such a great amount for Sands. If you have been affected by Angie’s story and would like to donate to this wonderful charity please visit https://www.uk-sands.org/donate to do so.
