Jessica’s family has taken part in Splash Dash a couple of times, with mum Alison sharing: “Jess absolutely loved it! She got sooo excited she pull her trachy out as we ran through blue.”
Jessica’s siblings shared their reasons for running Splash Dash for Claire House:
Brother, Joe said “They held my sister captive so I could go to Legoland. Ha ha ha. (My sister loved it).”
While sister, Liv said about Claire House “It gives me and my brother time with my mum and dad, without worrying about my sister, Jess.”
Molloy Family
Mum Natalie shared how personal the family’s experience of doing their first Splash Dash was by saying: “We did our first Splash Dash on our boy Sam’s first anniversary of his funeral.”
Lumley Family
The Lumley family have previously tackled Splash Dash, with plans to take part again. Emma’s mum, Rosie, said: “My husband did Splash Dash with our two younger daughters last year, they had an amazing time. This year, Emma and I are going to join in too (thinking a sheet over her and the wheelchair with her head popping out?!”.
Mathison Family
The Mathison family have taken part a couple of times, with the first time Freya’s dad and little sister taking part while Freya and family watched. Another year, all 5 of the family took part and ended up getting covered “head to toe” in the paint. The family are hoping “this year [they] can make it.”
McIntyre Family
All of the McIntyre family took part with mum Shirley saying: “We all had a fab day. Charlie can sleep anywhere! Even when he is getting covered in paint!”
