Hi, my name is Candice, I am mum to Lennie who is 18 months and lives in Goole, East Yorkshire.

Lennie was born at 27+6 weighing 2 pound 12. Lennie was in hospital for just over 10 weeks.

At four weeks old, Lennie was diagnosed with Severe Periventricular Leukomalacia (PVL) which is from lack of oxygen at birth. On 7.11.2022, Lennie was also diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy. Lennie's left and right front part of the brain has been affected which is all about movement, arms, legs and speech.

Lennie is not meeting a lot of his milestones and the NHS provide him with 12 weekly physio and hydrotherapy as and when.

I have been looking for various therapies for Lennie to do but of course these all cost money, and a lot of money.

Never in a million years did I expect to be doing this but I will do anything for my child and to give him the best life possible.

Lennie has weekly private physio, movement lessons and conductive education. We are hoping with what we raise for Just4Children we can continue doing all the therapies we are doing and be able to continue to do it all weekly as at the moment it is really difficult.

To help Lennie on his journey he also needs to have specialised equipment to help his motor functions.

Unfortunately, a lot of this therapy and equipment Lennie needs is not available through the NHS. This is why we need your help.

We will be externally grateful for a share or anything!

It will also mean that we can book some intensive therapies for Lennie which will be amazing!

Thank you everyone.
