Story

Matthew Pietrzyk was born in 2005 with a rare genetic disorder that meant in the early years of his life he would need a kidney transplant. At 2yrs of age his mum, Nicola gave him one of hers, sadly the operation was unsuccessful. Working along side the Bodie Hodges team we are hoping  to raise as much awareness as we can, for Matthew its his only chance to lead a normal life. The average child waits 12 months for a kidney, Matthew has now been waiting for 6yrs. No amount of money will change anything for Matthew, however that doesn't stop us from wanting to support this amazing charity. The Bodie Hodges foundation needs as much help as it can get and we want to get them to the £150,000 target. We believe that together we can make a difference!
