Sheffield Half Marathon / Fun Run · 27 April 2008 ·

We support the thousands of patients and families at Sheffield Children’s, from across the UK and beyond, by funding the life-changing and the joy-sparking. We make clinical care kinder, and bad days brighter. We bring play, laughter and comfort to places where they’re needed the most.

Story

Thanks for logging onto the fundraising page for Tom, Jamie, James B, James T, Ali, Ben, Nigel, Beki, Patrick, Paul & Max.

A special thanks to Bristol Myers Squibb Pharmaceuticals and Audi for their generous donations.

Thanks to Jamie's New Years resolution to get fit and raise some money for William, we are running the Sheffield Half Marathon for the Children's Hospital. Tom's son, William was born in September and suffers from a condition known as Arthrogryposis which affects the joints of his hands and feet. William also has considerable developmental delay and has recently been diagnosed with West Syndrome which is a type of Epilepsy resulting from neurological impairment. As a result, William has spent a lot of time at Sheffield Children’s Hospital and he is very lucky to have this facility so close to home. Everyone at the hospital has been fantastic and William has received the very best care we could wish for.
As a way of thanking the hospital and showing our support we would like to raise some money for the charity

There are a number of projects which require our help including free patient entertainment systems for all 130 beds and additional money to support the Ryegate centre, which is a child development centre where William currently attends a sensory group. (see link for more details)
