    Story

    Hello, meet sophie ^^!

    Sophie is a local village mum, at the age of 22, and being 34 weeks pregnant with her third child, she got the devastating news that she has an inoperable tumour on her brain stem.

    With the tumour that Sophie has, the life expectancy for someone with this tumour is an average of 5 years! She recieved her first diagnosis back in October 2021.

    How would you feel? Sophie’s had to come to terms with the fact she will miss her children potentially all going to primary school, she will miss her children going to secondry school, she will miss her children do their exams, driving tests, university applications, job interviews, first house, first partner, grandchildren and so much more inbetween!

    Her children are currently aged 2, 4 and 6. Two of which have never been on an aeroplane. They havent been able to have a decent family holiday since Sophies diagnosis, a break away from normaility to enjoy there last years together!

    So, we reached out to an amazing charity (James Clifford Camping Trust) who have funded Sophie, her mum, and her three children to flight to Disneyland Paris, however we need your help - two things,

    One - It’s a surprise!!!!! Please don’t tell her children!!! They won’t know until the day in March 2024 that they arrive at the airport,

    Two - Please please donate, even £5,

    WE would love them to be able to book a taxi to the airport, to have breakfast with the characters, to buy their family photos, soveneirs whilst out there, basically have the best holiday you could ever dream of!

    Sophie, until the chartity got involved last monrh - hasn’t recieved any gifts / holidays etc since her diagnosis, so lets make this one amazing, with memories to last her children a life time!!
