Hi, I’m Chloe. I’ve actually been coming to Little Miracles for years to help out during holidays and event days, and I decided to start volunteering here as part of my Duke of Edinburgh Award. Honestly, I didn’t expect to love it as much as I do, and I’m pretty sure I’ll keep volunteering even after my D of E is finished because it’s just so much fun!

Bromwyn is so excited to be part of Little Miracles! After many years as a teacher and SENDCo, she’s spent her career supporting children and their families, so joining a charity that does exactly that felt like a perfect fit. From the moment she heard about Little Miracles, she felt a real connection with the values – the kindness, compassion, and sense of community really spoke to her.
As Branch Coordinator in Milton Keynes, Bromwyn can’t wait to get stuck in, meet all the wonderful families, and make a real difference locally. She loves bringing people together, sharing tips and knowledge, and creating spaces where everyone feels welcome, safe, and understood. For her, the best part is seeing families connect, support one another, and feel less alone – that’s what makes the Little Miracles community so special.
Serena joined Little Miracles in June 2025 as a Childcare Volunteer, but her connection with the charity began many years earlier. As a child of a Little Miracles family, she experienced first-hand the support, care and encouragement the charity offers. Little Miracles supported Serena and her family in many ways, helping her get to where they are today.
Because of this, Serena was keen to give something back and support other children and families on similar journeys. In her role as a Childcare Volunteer, she helps create a safe, fun and welcoming environment where children can play, laugh and just be themselves while families feel supported and included.
Serena loves every part of Little Miracles, but if she had to choose a favourite, it would be seeing everyone happy and having fun together. She currently supports families across Boston, Skegness, South Holland and Bourne, and is passionate about helping Little Miracles continue making a positive difference.
This week, we’re excited to introduce you to Ashleigh, one of our childcare practitioners from our Peterborough branch! Ashleigh can often be found creating a Gruffalo out of paper plates or hosting her melody minds session!

Hello! I am Sasha, the new Centre Manager for our Peterborough branch. I have been with Little Miracles for 3 years now, first as a childcare worker and now as Centre Manager.
I began working with Little Miracles because I wanted to offer support to families and help them feel less alone. As a young mother of a child with a disability, I know first-hand how isolating it can be. I often felt judged and uncomfortable due to the looks and assumptions people made about me. My goal is to ensure everyone feels included and accepted, because we’re all here to support each other. That’s one of the things I love most about Little Miracles – it truly feels like a big, supportive family.
I really enjoy helping families to make precious memories with their loved ones by providing fun, inclusive and inviting activities. I have put on a wide range of activities this year, from a trip to London, ice skating, and my interactive story sessions for those who have profound and multiple learning disabilities (PMLD).

I can't wait to meet you all,
Sasha :)

Meet Orla!
Orla, is one of our wonderful Childcare Assistants at our Peterborough branch! Orla joined the Little Miracles family in February 2024 and enjoys getting stuck in during our half-term holidays.
Orla has always had a passion for working with children and families. "I started working with Little Miracles because I love to work with both children and families. I enjoy hearing their stories and how Little Miracles have helped them! It brings me so much joy to see the children happy under our care".
I adore the energy and excitement of our half-term sessions! These special times bring staff and children together, creating memories that last a lifetime. For me, nothing beats the smiles and laughter that fill the room during these events. 😊

Sophia is a Youth Worker at our Fenland branch, and has been with us for two and a half years (soon to be three!). Sophia’s story with Little Miracles began in an unexpected way. Initially, she joined in a different role, but her interest in understanding every aspect of our organisation brought her to the Fenland branch near her home. She met our incredible young people and was instantly drawn in by the sense of community and belonging she felt. “I just never stopped going,” she says.
For Sophia, the word that best describes her experience is community. “I’ve been a part of Little Miracles for so long now; it just feels like home,” she shares. She values the supportive, close-knit environment with both her colleagues and the youth she works with. According to Sophia, “the young people are simply amazing”—and it’s clear she’s dedicated to making a positive impact on their lives every day.
In an interview below, Debbie Merry, one of most loyal volunteers and the person in charge of our caravan holidays tells us why she started volunteering for Little Miracles and what she gets out of her experience of volunteering for us.
Let’s introduce yourself. Tell us your name, what organisation you are representing, and your volunteer role!
Hi I’m Debbie and my volunteering role is Caravan admin. Little Miracles have a Caravan in Norfolk and I deal with the advertising and booking of breaks. I additionally liaise with the Caravan site with regards to repairs.
How long have you been volunteering with Little Miracles?
6 years
What made you decide to do volunteering?
One of my friends asked me to help her out with the Caravan admin and I was happy to step in. I have been doing it on my own now for about 4 years.
What is the best thing about your time volunteering?
I enjoy helping out and knowing that I make a difference. I am contacted by members at all times of the day with caravan queries. I have been known to be doing caravan work whilst lying on my sun lounger round the pool in Majorca!
What is the most challenging part?
I think the most challenging part is being so far away from the caravan (it’s 75 miles from me) There are quite a lot of maintenance issues and it would be nice to be able to just pop over and check what’s wrong.
What contribution or achievement are you most proud of?
I suppose I am most proud of doing it all on my own. There are usually about 50 bookings a year, so that is a lot of work but also a lot of happy people having an affordable enjoyable holiday.
What motivates you to stay involved in volunteering?
I enjoy the work and am happy to give something back to this great charity.
What would you like to say to anyone who is considering volunteering?
Do it! It’s very rewarding and you’ll really make a difference to other people’s lives.
We are so incredibly grateful to Debbie and all of our volunteers. They positively impact the lives of our families and in Debbie's case can help families get a break and some time together at what could be the very lowest time of their lives.

Meet Cheryl, Our Nottingham Branch Lead
Cheryl first started attending Little Miracles events and activities last year. After experiencing the positive impact on her family, she decided to join us as a volunteer.
For Cheryl, Little Miracles has been a place where her son Ben can truly be himself—free from judgment and surrounded by love and acceptance.
Now, as a volunteer, Cheryl is dedicated to helping other families access the same opportunities. She offers support to parents who may be struggling, something she personally found difficult when Ben was younger, like completing the daunting DLA forms.
One of Cheryl’s greatest joys is seeing the smiles on families' faces after a day out or an event that she helped make possible. It's a reminder of the difference Little Miracles can make for families like hers.
Hello! I am Vicky, a volunteer at the Nottinghamshire Branch. I have been volunteering for around six months now, but I've been attending Little Miracles events since last Easter, and really feel like I've found our tribe.
