Hop Skip and Jump (Cotswold)

Celebrates its 25th Birthday
Among the events held to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the opening of Hop Skip and Jump at Seven Spring this year have been a fun day and a spectacular Circus performance which thrilled its audience of over 400 children and families. 
Many more events are planned throughout the year

A wonderful way to celebrate 25 years.

The charity’s aim is to provide day respite care and support for their families for children with life limiting or life threatening illnesses or any special need. Founded in 1982 the two “Hop Skip & Jump Centres” now provide placements for 31,000 people each year from the Midlands and South West England. The need for such respite is so great that we get requests from all over the country. Each centre costs just over £180,000 a year to run, and as we have very little State funding, the Foundation relies on the support of charitable trusts, corporate donors and generous individuals.

Volunteers are always needed to help the work of Hop, Skip & Jump and the Severn Springs Foundation.

If you have some time please consider us - your time would help make a big difference to the families that we work with.
