The transport was kindly funded by Community Transport Sussex. Special thanks to Rogate Pumpkin Patch for offering free entry and a pumpkin to take home for every family.
The families were collected from Midhurst and taken by minibus to the Pumpkin Patch. Many of the families that getting to the Rogate Pumpkin Patch more difficult. The families had a wonderful time exploring all of the activities, enjoying the outdoors and making lasting memories for the children. We all sat together for a lovely snack time afterwards.
The impact of the trip was huge, with feedback from the parents suggesting that, for some, this would not have been possible without the support and generosity of our funders.
What parents said about the trip:
‘I was hoping that my little girl would fall asleep on the way home, but she was still so excited after the trip!’
‘Without Home-Start’s support, I would have been too anxious to do this alone.’
‘We feel confident to try this again with our older daughter now.’
