Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Our son Raffi was born on the 4th of July 2011.&nbsp; He has a heart condition, aortic stenosis and at 6 weeks old had to have an operation at the Royal Brompton Hospital, which thank goodness went fantastically well.</p> <p>He is doing really well and loving life and is a happy little chappy.</p> <p>We had fantastic care at the Royal Brompton and we also met lots of other parents who's children had far worse conditions than Raffi's. The Brompton Fountain supports these families whose children are under treatment for life threatening heart and lung conditions at the Royal Brompton hospital.</p> <p>I would like to raise money for The Brompton Fountain as they do a fantastic job and we feel so lucky to have our little Raffi. To raise the money I, my sister Amy Waters and my best buddy Graham Wales are taking a rather chilly swim in the North Sea at the annual Cromer Boxing Day swim.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
