Superhero Sleepover

Some of our children and their families had the opportunity to experience a Superhero Sleepover with Luxx Events at the Hampton by Hilton, Humberside Airport.
At the Superhero Academy, the children had the opportunity to learn poses plus web-shooting and web bombs with Spidey, superhero landing and circuits with Widow and target practice with The Captain and The Iron Legend. Over a delicious buffet breakfast on the Saturday morning, the children received Superhero Academy certificates and team photographs from Luxx Events.
The families have sent us amazing feedback about the even. With all you can eat buffet, overnight stay with breakfast and fabulous entertainment, what’s not to love! Here are some wonderful photos from the event.
Councillor Peter Clark


Cllr Peter Clark, Mayor of North Lincolnshire in 2021-2022
Sunflowers Children’s Action Group is entirely reliant on support from the local community to help make a difference to our registered children who suffer from life limiting and/or life threatening conditions. We are all volunteers, so aside from minimal operating overheads, all monies raised are used to make a difference. So, we have to give our huge thanks to Cllr Peter Clark, Mayor of North Lincolnshire in 2021-2022 for his outstanding efforts on our behalf. We are now in receipt of all the funds he raised for us during his mayoral year, which add up to a fantastic…..drum roll…… £20495.18. Absolutely incredible! Cllr Clark has been the mayor a record three times, and also previously supported the children’s charity Joanne was involved with, then raising £76057.61 over the two previous terms. That’s almost £100,000! Some people may question the role of a mayor in a community, but this is by far the greatest gift that anyone can give – their time, energy and efforts being given to help those who need it most. We simply can’t thank Cllr Clark enough for this incredible donation. Cllr Clark commented, ““I’ve had the privilege of seeing the difference that this fundraising has made to our local families. Clearly, it has been a very difficult time for charities in general, so I am very proud to have been able to support them in some small way.”
Santa’s Special Christmas Parties 2021

We held our second Christmas party in December 2021 alongside, a week later a virtual event for the families that couldn’t attend in person. Santa took time out of his busy schedule to visit our children and whether it was in person or via the computer special memories were created.
Past Events

As lockdowns continued during 2020 and 2021 we carried on supporting our families with activity boxes and virtual entertainment events to
When the first lockdown struck in 2020, we realised there was a need to support our families more than ever, not go to ground.
Gift boxes with suitable toys and sweets were sent to every registered child whose family requested one. Sunflower growing packs were sent a few weeks later and Think2Speak crayons and colouring books were sent out another couple of weeks after that. A final round of lock-down gifts were kindly and very generously sponsored by an organisation called ‘We Are All Making a Difference’ who donated £5000!
Thanks to sponsorship, we have sent out over 80 wonderful gift boxes to deserving, brave and shielded children.
Despite the many obstacles we have faced this year, we still managed to provide our children with special parcels to help put smiles on their faces.
