Little Rascals Foundation

Charity

Little Rascals Foundation is a charity that has been set up by the directors of Little Rascals Play Centre, Dave Edwards and Ben Wootton, to support children with disabilities.

Ben has worked closely with people with disabilities throughout his career and has a good understanding of the difficulties these children and their families face. Ben wanted to set up this charity, so that he could help these brave children to overcome these challenges.

Dave is a professional footballer and wanted to use his status to help others. Since opening Little Rascals, Dave has taken pleasure in seeing how much the play centre has been able to support children with disabilities, and feels that this charity is the perfect way to support them further, in many different ways.

The Little Rascals Foundation will strive to support children with disabilities, helping them to participate in what is considered 'normal' in their everyday society. Little Rascals Play Centre already works hard to make the centre accessible for all children. They hold 'Kids Plus' sessions, which enable children with disabilities to play when the centre is quieter and have sole access to the play equipment and their sensory room. The charity will now look to expand these services and raise further funds to support children with disabilities throughout the Midlands and Mid-Wales.
