Story

Roza Needs Your Help to Walk.

You can help Roza walk for the very first time unaided by donating.

Roza is 5 years old and has Spastic Diplegic Cerebral Palsy. One of the symptoms that affect Roza is that it causes tightness in her legs, so she is unable stand or to walk independently.

After researching potential treatments to help Roza walk, we have heard about an operation that over 100 UK children have had. This is called Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR). This is  offered in America, and has a 100% success rate from the St Louis Children’s Hospital in Missouri. They have been carrying out this operation now for over 25 years.

The aim is to raise £50,000 to send Roza to America to the St Louis Children’s Hospital for the SDR operation and to pay for up to 2 years of specialist physiotherapy for Roza and other children with cerebral palsy.

National charity, Caudwell Children, is supporting Roza and other children like her by raising money to fund ground breaking treatments and physiotherapy which can help children with Cerebral Palsy walk independently for the first time.

To do this we will need as much or as little as you can give, to raise the much needed funds for this amazing little girl and her friends.

Anyone interested in helping the Help Roza Walk Appeal is asked to contact Caudwell Children on 01782 600114 or to donate online visit www.justgiving.com/helprozawalk

Important note to donors: As long as Roza requires funds to pay for treatment in the United States, Caudwell Children will manage all payments of funds for the family. All donations made will be added to the Caudwell Children SDR Fund and will be used to help Roza and other children with Cerebral Palsy in the UK receive this life-changing treatment.
