23 MAY 2007 BABIES, toddlers and young children love to splash so if mums and dads fancy keeping the bathroom floor dry for a change they should bring them down to Starbeck Baths for this year's Splashathon.

 

During the regular Aquababes sessions on 5 and 7 June, Starbeck Baths will be taking part in the national Tommy's Splashathon to raise funds for research into the causes of miscarriage, premature birth and stillbirth.  There is a tough target to meet as last year's event raised £175,000.

 

There will be a lot of fun and prizes to be won and by being sponsored to splash a width or two of the pool which is actually quite small, comfortably heated and very child friendly money can be raised for this year's appeal.

 

Each little splasher will get a free pair of HUGGIES® and Little Swimmers® and after the event they will also get a certificate to say they have taken part which will record the funds they raised.

 

Parents/carers will need to register before getting into the pool.  The sessions will take place on 5 June between 9.45 10.45 am and on

7 June between 10.00 10.45 am.   Both events are available for children aged five years and under.
