Raising money for Wallace & Gromit's Children's Foundation

Charity Registration No. 1096483

Wallace & Gromit's Children's Foundation is a national charity championing the cause of sick children by raising funds to improve their quality of life in hospitals and hospices throughout the UK. The Foundation funds an innovative range of projects to ensure children have access to the very best comforts, facilities and equipment giving them a better, brighter future. These include arts, music and play therapy programmes, sensory equipment and facilities, respite care, state of the art equipment and pull down beds and refreshments rooms for parents. These extra facilities not covered by statutory funding, can make an extra-ordinary difference to the lives of children and their families in hospitals and hospices. We can't stop children getting ill or cure every illness but Wallace & Gromit's Children's Foundation works hard to ensure that children enjoy a carefree, fun and happy childhood despite their medical condition. Please help us today and put a smile back on a sick child's face.

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

UPDATE - due to Alex readmission to the Bristol Childrens Hospital the jump date has been moved to 1st November 2008 still at Swindon.

To the left is an image of my baby son Alex on life support at the Royal Bristol Childrens Hospital. i'm trying to raise £7,200 to buy 6 syringe drivers for the ICU to help save the lives of other children.

This was taken on 17th August 2008 Alex is still alive and is in recovery thanks to the staff at the PICU Bristol Childrens Hospital. Please help me to save the lives of other children like Alex.
