Life is full of firsts — first steps, first words, first day at school, first job.

But for many serving personnel, these milestones are often missed while they’re away from home.

Here at Give Us Time we’re proud to make one special “first” possible — a first family holiday!

This summer, thanks to the generosity of Park Holidays, Angel and her husband enjoyed their first break as a family of three at Marlie Holiday Park.

It was a magical experience for their 19-month-old:

“He loved meeting all the mascots and joining in with the kids’ entertainment!”

And the park got glowing feedback too:

“Accommodation was lovely and spotless! Loads of facilities, close to shops and the beach!”

“Without the help of Give Us Time, our family wouldn’t have been able to go. We’re so grateful!”

Because of our amazing donors, we’ve helped 1,500 families like Angel’s can make precious memories together — ones they’ll cherish forever.
