2025 was, without doubt, the busiest ‘FEAR year’ to date!! We had 50 FEAR events, including swimming, skiing, painting, bowling, theme park days and even a zip wire day. 3,789 people joined our events in 2025! 297 people benefited from using a FEAR drysuit, and 200 FEAR Bear books and 431 FEAR Bears were donated across the country. In 2025, we also ran our first ever monthly swimming lessons at Romsey Rapids. I was awarded the BBC Make a Difference award and we finally sent our first family to Give Kids the World in America.

In 2024, we held a total of 48 FEAR events across the Country. Our events included: swimming, sailing, skiing, adventure days, theme park days, a bike ride and a very memorable FEAR holiday to Disneyland Paris.
Over the year, 3,271 people came to our events. Huge thank you to everyone who joined our events, you are the reason FEAR is so special!

In 2023, we held a total of 28 FEAR events across the Country. The events included swimming, sailing, rock climbing, archery, canoeing, Alton Towers and a run/walk/push event in Windsor. A total of 2,061 people came to our events, and I can’t thank you all enough for coming. It was the most amazing first FEAR year, because of you!
