Story

<p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Our little girl Evie was born in 2010 with a cleft lip and palate, we are very fortunate that she receives the best care possible on the NHS. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Unfortunately in third world countries this is not the case, the children are left untreated and one in ten will die before reaching their first birthday. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Our aim to raise &pound;15,000 will change the lives of 100 children and their families. &pound;150 provides one child with the life changing surgery. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">We feel so lucky to be blessed with a happy and healthy child, that has given us the drive to make a difference. </span></p> <p><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt;">Thank you for taking the time to visit our page, every penny counts in helping us reach our goal. </span></p> <p><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 11.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;">James, Helena and Evie </span></p>
