Wishing our burn survivors and supporters a very happy new year!  Do you have any new year’s resolutions?   One of Polly’s (Dan’s Fund founder and CEO) is to look after her own burn scars and body more this year.  She has started a course of 6 LPG massage treatment sessions at Chelsea & Westminster Hospital every Wednesday throughout January & February 2024.  She hopes this massage treatment with the LPG machine will relax her tight bands of scarring and reduce pain.  It will also give her the opportunity to assess the machines and understand their worth, with a view to donating some to the major burn centres across the UK.   We’re hoping for great results and will update you in due course!

On 19 March 2023, members of the Nottingham Burns Unit social running club called the ‘Plod Squad’ took part in both the Sherwood Pines half marathon and 10k run choosing to raise funds for Dan’s Fund For Burns (DFFB).   The group looked fantastic in their DFFB t-shirts and raised an amazing £2,235 for us!  Thank you so much for your incredible efforts.  Congratulations and well done!

The Bali Legends Smashed it at the Dubai 7s

The dnata Bali Legends were delighted to play in the  Emirates Airline Dubai Rugby 7s this past weekend.  Entered in the International Vets, they played hard  to get through to the Quarters and then the Semis.  Unfortunately, an unlucky bounce saw us lose the Semi Finals.

Our thanks go to our Sponsors, dnata, Herbert Smith Freehills, Silber Arrows, IT Document Solutions, Premier Inn, Binns Fencing, CBRE & Cignpost Diagnostics and to the boys who put their bodies on the line and made it to Dubai to support the team and Dan’s Fund.

Tuesday 12th October 2021

On Sunday 10th October 2021, we had 18 runners take part in the Royal Parks Half Marathon to raise funds for Dan’s Fund For Burns.  It was an early start but everyone was enthusiastic and ready having missed their chance to run in 2020 due to the pandemic.  It was an amazing day with all runners completing the race with some good times & pb’s in the mix.   Karima Harris ran for DFFB and WON the ladies event with a PB of 1.25. Big Congratulations to her!  Karima and Dan’s Fund also had a big shoutout  from DJ Sara Cox on BBC Radio2 on Monday evening.  Well done to all our runners who have raised over £18k so far! Thank you so so much!
