What The Bash Means To ME
"It is amazing to wake up each morning knowing you are going to see the support Variety provides to kids who need it the most. It’s an unforgettable journey where you see first-hand the continuing support Variety provides to help all children get the same opportunity in life whilst meeting new mates and having a ton of laughs along the way."
- Ayden, 6 x Bash Legend
