💙 I’m Taking an Ice Bath for My Daughter Natalia
On 10 May, I will be taking on an Ice Bath Challenge to raise money for Sunshine & Smiles – Leeds Down Syndrome Network.
This challenge is very personal to me. My beautiful daughter Natalia was born with Down syndrome, and she has brought an incredible amount of love, joy and strength into our lives. She reminds us every day that the smallest things can bring the greatest happiness.
Like many families, we are learning, growing and navigating this journey together. Support from organisations like Sunshine & Smiles makes a huge difference. They provide guidance, resources and a wonderful community for families raising children with Down syndrome.
That’s why I decided to step far outside my comfort zone and jump into an ice bath, something that will definitely be cold and challenging! ❄️
But a few freezing minutes is nothing compared to the lifelong impact that support and awareness can have for children like Natalia.
💛 How you can help
If you are able to donate, even a small amount can make a big difference. Your support will help provide activities, support and opportunities for children with Down syndrome and their families.
Thank you for supporting Natalia, our family, and many other children like her.
Together we can turn a cold challenge into something truly meaningful. 💙
