Thanks to everyone who came out and supported us. From bus rides around the island to costume parties and charity walks, these days keep the foundation going and bring our community together. Here's a look back at a few of our favourites.

Scenic Bus Ride

On Saturday, 23 November 2019, we hopped on a bus for our Scenic Bus Ride around beautiful Barbados. Everyone met in Queen's Park, Bridgetown at 12:30, and from 1:00 to 5:00 PM we took in the sights together, with plenty of laughs and the island looking its very best. Every ticket helped support the work of the foundation. Thank you to everyone who came along for the ride!

House to House Costume Party

On Saturday, 19 October 2019, the Early Act Helping Hands of Wills Primary School teamed up with the neighbours of Graeme Hall Terrace to host a House to House Costume Party in aid of the foundation. From 5:00 to 9:00 PM, children in their best costumes went from house to house, then carried on at the after-party with face painting and a disco. Thank you to the students, parents and neighbours who made it such a special evening.

Have A Heart Charity Walk & Run

On Saturday, 10 August 2019, walkers and runners laced up early for the Have A Heart Charity Walk & Run, starting from the Barbados Coast Guard. From 8:00 to 10:00 AM, everyone got moving for a good cause, whether they came to race or just to stroll with friends. It was a lovely way to start the weekend and support the foundation. Thank you to everyone who walked, ran and cheered along the way.

We met at Queen's Park, Bridgetown at noon, headed out at 12:30, and spent the afternoon exploring beautiful Barbados until 4:30 PM. It's always one of our favourite days of the year, full of good company and great views. We're so grateful to everyone who joined us and made it such a fun day out.
