Bravo to our Summer fundraising heroes

03/09/2025

The Summer holidays is the quietest time of year at Reverse Rett. With children off school it’s one big juggling act and when you put a child with Rett syndrome into the mix it’s a miracle we all survive to tell the tale.

It’s safe to say that fundraising by taking on a challenge or holding an event is not at the top of anyone’s agenda.

Yet, we have been blessed to have supporters who have found a way to keep the money coming in allowing us to keep going full steam ahead with our mission.

Below are a selection of our Summer heroes, thank you to everyone that has stepped up when you may well have had other things to do!
