As you may have seen we are Official LolliBop bloggers this year. I'm delighted to tell you the team behind the LolliBop festival - Broadwick Live and Live Nation are proud to be in partnership with Sparks the leading children’s medical research charity.
Not heard of Sparks?
"As the leading children’s
medical research charity Sparks is dedicated to funding and championing
pioneering research into a range of conditions affecting babies, children and
pregnant women.
Since 1991
Sparks charity has committed over £27million to
pioneering research projects across a wide spectrum of medical conditions
including childhood cancers, cerebral palsy, premature birth and spina bifida.In total Sparks has funded more than 270 research projects in more than 80 hospitals, universities and research institutions across the UK and abroad".
"LolliBop,
the UK’s biggest kids festival, takes place at Hatfield House, and includes hundreds
of engaging activities, interactive zones and big name performances all aimed
the under 10s. And now families will
also have the opportunity to make a life-changing difference to other children
by simply having fun".
"Sparks will host interactive stands and exciting events each day to add to the mini-festival goer’s experience such as a treasure trail, celebrity bake-off and a chance to find out more about the science behind their research. Each year, less than £10 per child in the UK is spent on research into child health. Every day 1 in 30 babies are born in the UK with a condition which may affect them for life. Sparks raises money to fund pioneering children’s medical research to get this to change".
