A little background info - As part of their school work in 2021, the kids were tasked with setting up a business and selling something with all proceeds going to charity. Naturally, the Chillidren of the Valley decided to dust off their aprons and get back into the kitchen to make something spicy. The proceeds from the first batch they made went to Many Tears Animal Rescue www.manytearsrescue.org, a charity close to our hearts. The sauce sold out within 24 hours.
 
After the roaring success of the initiative, and the support and encouragement they received, the Chillidren asked if they could continue making the sauce, and possibly some others in the range, and support different charities and causes. Such a heartfelt and empathetic request completely blew us away. How could we say no?!
 
In addition to Many Tears Animal Rescue, the Chillidren Sauces have helped support a number of charities and we have been in communication with more to support on an ongoing basis
 
This batch is going to support Speed of Sight speedofsight.org who are committed to the promotion of opportunity for children and adults of all abilities.  From their website - We believe that people who are able to take part in a sporting or physical activity find it helps with their self-esteem, social interaction and physical and mental wellbeing. With this in mind, we provide a motor sport experience for people with disabilities. We give people a chance to forget, if only for a little while, that they have a disability.
 
This charity, like all supported by the Chillidren venture so far, has close personal importance to us. A family friend, Dan Roche, was born with an extremely rare genetic condition called Alstrom syndrome which left him blind, partially deaf and suffering from multiple other disabilities. The syndrome led him to have a kidney transplant in 2005, a pancreatic transplant a year later, and a 2nd kidney transplant in February 2023. Sadly, he never recovered from complications after this surgery, and died at the age of 46.
 
Despite suffering from multiple medical issues from birth, Dan lived his life to the full, working as a volunteer with the Cardiff Institute for the Blind (now SightLife) for 25 years and raising funds for various charities. In a life without many opportunities, his great passion was cars, and he was fortunate to be able to work with the Speed of Sight charity that provides motor sport experience for people with disabilities. He was never happier than when tearing around Llandow race circuit, terrifying his co-driver and spectators with his fearless approaches to bends – well, it probably helps when you can’t see them!
