The format will involve a teacher-led baby lesson sponsorship activity and a toddler lesson sponsorship activity, which will take place at the end of each lesson.<\/p>\n<p>Caroline Sparks, the co-founder of Turtle Tots, says: \u201cCharity events are very important to the ethos of Turtle Tots, and every year we really enjoy hosting fun events that all our little Turtles and parents can get involved with.\u00a0\u00a0Our parents love it too, and are always supportive of our charity events \u2013 with their continued support we are hoping to raise \u00a325,000 this year for Meningitis Now with \u2018Splash Now\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith our focus being on baby and infant swimming too, Meningitis Now is a charity very dear to our and all our teachers\u2019 hearts, and we were delighted when they asked if we could host this event in partnership with them. Charities have suffered hard through the pandemic, so we are really looking forward to making a splash, bringing on the smiles and raising much-needed funds for Meningitis Now,\u201d added Caroline.<\/p>\n<p>Meningitis Now chief executive Tom Nutt said: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be teaming up with Turtle Tots and we are really grateful for their support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis partnership will help us raise lifesaving awareness of the signs and symptoms of meningitis with the families of babies and toddlers, the group most at risk of the disease, as well as raising vital funds to support all those fighting back from it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the pandemic having made such a big impact on our work, support from partnerships like this has never been more important as we look to defeat meningitis in the UK within a generation.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-14419\"
