We couldn't do what we do without the vital funding and support provided by our wonderful charity partners like Strongbones Children's Charitable Trust

This fantastic photo of one of our Delta Buggies with balloon wheels on a beach is a perfect example of how having the right piece of equipment really does make a difference!

Check out one of your young people using their Delta All-terrain buggy while exploring the beach. Strongbones provide young people with essential equipment to enrich their lives, making it easier to access all terrains.

It's going to be an exciting weekend for Delichon Ltd's manufacturing Director Julian Davy as he takes on the gruelling Club Triumph Round Britain Reliability Run covering 2000 miles around the UK including visits to Lands End and John O'Groats on the way! Julian and his co-driver Selina will be driving their restored purple GT6 "Gertrude" and will be joined by around 100 other historic Triumph cars on their 48 hour journey which starts and ends at the historic Knebworth House.

Julian and Selina are raising money for Parkinson's UK and would welcome donations from anyone who is inspired by their efforts - especially given the weather forecast for this weekend

A useful thing to know about for assisted runners who want to celebrate their Parkrun milestones.....

So excited to discover this morning that now have milestone sew on badges. Lucy has a few milestones under her belt and when she got to 10 we bought the t-shirt. Problem is you can’t see the milestone number if you’re sat in a wheelchair or the logo on the front when you have support harnesses on. We have used pin badges on a band on her Delta up to now but I feel some kind of parkrun milestone sash coming on! Why does it matter to me to have the clothes the identity things like this? Two reasons… it’s easy to see her as someone just being ‘pushed around’ parkrun but that is to seriously underestimate the effort it takes for her to keep alert, the delta buggy feels different from her super supportive everyday chair… she’s seated differently, it sways a bit as it’s a bit like a hammock the way it’s suspended in the frame. She also has to manage and process the speed and changes in speed and movement along with whatever sensory experiences the weather is offering that day. It I’d effort for her as well as whoever is pushing the buggy and she deserves that recognition just like all parkrunners. The other reason is the clothes are a mark of identity and as such a communication opportunity… it can be difficult for people to know how to start a conversation with Lucy but clothes that offer something to say… a milestone t-shirt or a jumper marking an event for example… give a starting point, just like they do for the rest of us… 🌳
