SAFSS are pleased to announce that our day trip for 2009 will be to Legoland, Windsor. The trip for South Asian children, young people and adults who have a disability or life limiting condition, their parents, carers and guardians will take place on Thursday 30 July.

Every year SAFSS raises vital funds to support our day trip which costs in the region of £5,000. Last year our trip to Drayton Manor Park was funded by the proceeds of our 21st Anniversary Event and over 200 children, young people and adults with disabilities and their families were supported. A big thank you to all our sponsors, supporters and everyone who helped raise the grand sum of £4,500 and made the 21st Anniversary Event the huge success it was.

Further details will follow on this website regarding the day trip. If you have any questions in the meantime please contact Amar on (0121) 558 2198 admin.safss@btconnect.com
