Weʼve raised £840 to help buy a hydrotherapy pool for Ben and Sam who have been diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
- Bourne, Lincolnshire, United Kingdom
- Funded on Friday, 5th May 2017

Story
The money will go towards providing a hydrotherapy pool for the boys, who were both diagnosed with a rare form of muscular dystrophy, known as Duchenne in November 2015.
The condition affects around one in every 3,500 boys and causes muscles to weaken to a point where they will usually need to use a wheelchair by the age of 12.
The hydrotherapy pool will help relax the boys’ muscles, helping them walk for longer.

7 years agoA Massive MASSIVE thank you. The target has been reached and still donations are coming in. Amazing! Every single pound donated is gratefully received and will be put to work making as much difference as possible to two beautiful boys. We will leave the page active until Ben, Sam and Lily's Dad has braved the shave so if there is anyone still wishing to make a donation please do so. Thank you so much to those that have donated. Watch this space for Owen braving the shave!

Owen Rogers, Ben, Sam and Lily's father, has agreed to shave his head if we can raise just £700 - an expensive haircut you say?.... well yes! but this is more than just a hair cut... it's even more than Owen experiencing an early chill on his already thinning dome...
