A note from Lorna (Co-Founder, SuperDinky)

I run SuperDinky voluntarily from my small home studio. Everything we do is aimed at improving life for NICU families and reducing the impact of PTSD after prematurity. I’m so touched that so many people are joining this event. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Sharing your event

We’d LOVE to see photos of your event — but please don’t share children’s faces, names, or locations for GDPR and safeguarding reasons. Photos of messy hands, painty feet, or blurred/anonymous shots are perfect.

If you post on social media, please use the hashtag #MessyPlayForWorldPremDay so others can be inspired by your event.
