Making Memories: Elsa and Pixie Bring Magic to Sparks
Posted on 10/12/2025
We had an extra special session at Sparks this week when the amazing Dress Up and Dream team visited us once again, this time bringing none other than Elsa and Pixie along with them!
The room was full of singing, dancing and games, and there were plenty of brilliant photo opportunities with the characters. For many of our group, it was a truly unforgettable experience. Whenever we ask what our attendees would love to see in future sessions, this kind of visit is always top of the list!
Anita, a regular group member said “meeting Elsa and Pixie was fun as we played games together, and all the bubbles and glitter made it feel magical”.
This exciting session was made possible thanks to Fin’s wonderful fundraising. Fin is one of our supported volunteers who took on a sponsored swim to raise money for the event, and he absolutely smashed his target. We’re all incredibly proud of him.
We’d love to invite Dress Up and Dream back again. If you’re able to support us, whether through donations, funding, or spreading the word, we’d be so grateful. Sessions like this make a huge difference to the people we support.
A huge thank you to the Dress Up and Dream team for being so thoughtful, creative, and engaging with everyone who came along. You truly made the day magical!
