Pricing Update

 

Hi everyone,

We are writing to inform you that due to increase costs, we too will have to raise our prices in our online store. This is something that doesn't make us happy but it is what we need to do. We don't want to lose out financially as our main aim for having the online store is to fundraise by donating a small percentage towards The Ehlers-Danlos Support UK charity, from each product ordered. Please look at the store to see what we have that might just catch your eye.


Each order, we donate a few pounds, pay shipping and VAT so the order that you put in doesn't add up more at the end. Hopefully if we receive so many orders per month, we may be able to offer discounts but we will share any news such as this with you all on social media.


We are super proud of the products that we have available for you, and the feedback that we receive is amazing! So thank you. 

We are so thankful for all of your custom and we truly do get excited when we receive an order!


Love World of Dinky

Dinkykts EDS Diaries Highlights!!

By Katie Wearing • January 19, 2023
Hi everyone! As many of you who follow us over on our Facebook page Dinkykts EDS Diaries, you will be aware that we are coming up to 10 years since we began, back in February 2013. So slowly, we are looking back on the positives of our campaign work. I believe in celebrating these milestones and why not?!! While the odd bit of Dinkykts EDS Diaries has received bits of help from various individuals, the majority has been done by myself (Katie) so anything that has been done is incredible. I know that we haven't done huge things, what we have done is wonderful and I am proud. Looking back, we never did manage to organise a family fun-day and that was one of the reasons why we began this campaign but due to the nature of having a rare disease like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, you just never know what life throws at you. Perhaps in the near future, we can actually organise a family fun-day? Hopefully this time, I won't end up in hospital (twice) haha! I have always wanted to go out in the community, whether it's going into schools, colleges, medical panels or having a stall where I meet random members of the public and raise awareness, and hopefully fundraise at the same time. I did get a taster of going into classes at college when I attended my local sixth form college and I really enjoyed it. We will be showcasing whatever we do on our YouTube channel as that's our main focus of awareness work. We also have the whole month of May to do lots of things as that's EDS Awareness Month and we want your ideas/suggestions! So definitely more highlights to come in 2023 and beyond!! Love DinkyKt

Dinkykts EDS Diaries Upcoming Anniversary

By Katie Wearing • January 10, 2023
Hello, on the 6th February 2023, it'll be the 10th anniversary of Dinkykts EDS Diaries and of course, we will be celebrating this milestone! One thing for sure is that we will be doing a livestream, and on this live, we'll be doing the lucky dip raffle. we have sold some of the numbers already, but will need to sell more so that we can finally do it. :D Once the prize is chosen by the winner, there will be a donation made to the Ehlers-Danlos Support UK charity so definitely pick your numbers and soon! It'll be £1 per number and you can pick as many as you wish or you can just pick the one. We would preferably be paid via PayPal. Message us if you have any questions or anything. The prize will be something from the online store... there's plenty of wonderful products to choose from! Click at the top left to go to the store. Do you have any other suggestions in how we can celebrate this milestone, in how we can raise awareness and fundraising money for charity, do share with us. We have thought of one or two ideas so far but more suggestions/ideas are definitely welcome. Maybe you could do something at home, in the workplace/school or somewhere else to raise awareness? We can't believe we will be celebrating ten years, absolutely crazy! but we feel super proud of the journey that we have shared together because without your support and kindness, we wouldn't be here today, so THANK YOU!!! Love DinkyKt
