Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

St Francis House is part of the Rainbow Family Trust and is located in Disbury, Manchester.

The House provides care for children and young adults with life threatening conditions, providing support and friendship for the whole family.

You may all remember Kirsty Howard, the brave little girl, who with a 45lb oxygen tank in tow, recived the baton from David Beckham to make the final handover to the Queen at the Commonwealth Games.  Kirsty has received care from Francis House and has been involved with fundraising for several years. Kirsty was given 6 weeks to live in February 1999 due to a heart conditon as she was born with her heart back to front.

Francis House now have plans to build a beaurevment room and a further 6 bedrooms and need monies to do so.

Francis House is also my Mum's chosen charity as Lady Captain of Northenden Golf Club and to date their fundraising has raised over £4000.

So please dig deep and donate now.
