Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This wont be easy....

As a team, Redrok, have entered the Plymouth 10k and are looking to support some fantatstic Charities - my choice is the Gold Dust Appeal.

Having visited the Pediatric level at Derriford you can see what they're trying to achieve to be able to make the 10,000 Children and Families comfortable whilst visiting, for either a one off appointment or long term high dependency care.

I'm lucky enough to have 2 healthy children, and visited only as a one off appointment for something relatively minor. However, many children visiting require long term care and it's important that with the appeal we raise enough money to create an environment that makes everyone feel comfortable and relaxed during long periods of care.

The appeal is simple;

Creating bright, exciting and welcoming wards for children and young people at Derriford Hospital. 

Our goal is to be able to care for children by providing a calm,
reassuring environment; to engage them with colourful, themed areas that distract them from clinical procedures and to provide greater comfort and privacy for children and their families. 

With your help we aim to raise £100,000 to achieve this.

The Gold Dust Appeal aims to create an environment which is friendly and has calm areas for families to be together but also has stimulating areas for children to play. An environment where children and young people step out of the lift and instantly recognise they’re in a comforting and reassuring place.
