Charity
CHIPS stands for Children’s Integrated Playschemes. We offer play and social opportunities for children with additional needs aged 3 to 19 living in the Hertfordshire council districts of East Hertfordshire and Broxbourne. Brothers and sisters are strongly encouraged to join as CHIPS believes that all children should play together regardless of their needs. Simple play is vital in any child’s development. It is not only fun, play is a key component of healthy living by enabling good physical, emotional, mental and social development. CHIPS is run by a group of parents and professionals who all live locally. We organise Saturday short play sessions during school term time and day long play sessions during the school holidays including 3 week sessions during the long summer holidays. Between 25 and 30 children are welcomed each time at our playschemes. These are organised in Ware, Hertford, Bishops Stortford, Hoddesdon and Cheshunt.

Team TobyChips's fundraising page
Hi, thanks for visiting our page.
On 29th April Amy and I will be walking 10k to raise money for CHIPs (Children's Integrated Playschemes). Toby loves his sessions at CHIPs and always gets excited when we get his CHIPs T shirt out and it's time to get ready.
Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor us and donations will be quickly processed and passed to CHIPs. Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this. We really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.
Thanks for your support, whatever you can afford to donate will be deeply appreciated by our family and all the other families supported by CHIPs. I will be entering the name of everyone who makes a donation into a draw and the prize will be one little cotton rabbit. I'll draw the winner with a random number generator on Monday 30th April and will post the results on my blog.
Many thanks
Julie, Amy, Toby, Huw and all the families with children at CHIPs
