Little Hearts Matter is a national charity offering support and information to anyone affected by the devastating diagnosis of a single ventricle heart condition, children born with half a working heart. We work to support and raise awareness of the needs of these children and their families.

Story

Hi,

Thank you for visiting our page.

At a routine 20 week scan baby Harley (bens cousin and bayleys baby brother) was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect (CHD) called hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). This means that harley will be born with only the right side of his heart and will need to undergo a number of operations starting from birth.

Unfortunatly most people are unaware that the number 1 cause of death from a birth defect is from a CHD and that 8/1000 babies will be born with a form of CHD.

Ben and Bayley would like to help raise awareness of this and whilst doing so help to raise money for a charity called Little Hearts Matter. Little Hearts Matter is a charity that provides support and information to families like ours who have children that are born with only half a working heart. To do this the boys will both be shaving their hair into mohawks and dying them red and blue (CHD awareness colours) at the end of july.

Thanks again and we look forward to updating you with photos of the boys and their new hairdos.

Ben, Bayley and family.
