This Saturday is the date originally planned for the 2020 MedEquip4Kids Shimmer Ball, which unfortunately can’t take place this year due to the difficult circumstances. If you’ve attended the Shimmer Ball before, you’ll know it’s one of our most glamorous and enjoyable social events, featuring music, dancing, entertainment, and delicious food and drink.

We’ve been proud to host the ball for the past 14 years and it usually raises around £50,000 to help us fund children’s medical equipment. We’re so sorry to be missing it this time, but we anticipate welcoming you to an even bigger and better event in 2021.

In the meantime, we hope you and your family are staying safe and well. If you’d like to make a donation in lieu of attending the 2020 Shimmer Ball, please click here. Thank you so much.

“The switch adapted toys have been a wonderful addition to our school. Both staff and children were thrilled to have some new exciting resources. The children love the lights and movement many of these switch toys have and are highly motivated to explore and investigate how to make them work. They have been great for pupils to develop their understanding of cause and effect and we have also noticed improved concentration and engagement when using them. Often it can be difficult to find toys that are robust enough to withstand lots of heavy use AND be interesting and fun. These new resources tick all those boxes. They have made a noticeable impact on the children’s development in this area.”
