Join the Bedfordshire Down Syndrome Support Group Smarties Challenge!
We’re inviting you to take part in our fun and meaningful Smarties Challenge to help raise vital funds for the Bedfordshire Down Syndrome Support Group.
Here’s how it works:
Enjoy a tube of Smarties (yum!)
Keep the empty tube
Fill it with 20p pieces (and even £1 coins if you’re feeling generous!)
Ask your family, friends, and neighbours to get involved
Return the full tube to us—we’ll count every penny and use it to support our amazing families
It’s a small challenge that makes a big difference—and it’s perfect for children, families, schools, workplaces, and anyone looking to do something simple and sweet for a good cause!
Here’s a little poem to get you started:
Hundreds of smarties to try and eat
The empty tube you must keep
20p pieces (& pound coins) are what you must find
Ask friends & family, they won’t mind
Fill the tube to the top
Then bring to us and we will count the lot …………
Your kindness helps us provide support, events, and opportunities for children and adults with Down Syndrome in Bedfordshire and surrounding counties. So crack open a tube of Smarties and start saving—it’s fun, easy, and every coin counts!
Thank you for your support!
