1/3 #SillinessMatters! ♥️ Over the past year, the world has been a bit topsy turvy, but thanks to our partnership with the brilliant ClownDoctors-TINArts we’ve brought all kinds of silly to Heart Heroes and their families to help turn frowns upside-down during such tricky times...

Had a lovely last day (for now....) session at St Oswald's Hospice supported by The Children's Foundation. We couldn't get to see everyone so we captured a few tiktoks to share....but not all are about dancing!!!!!!
