I'm raising funds to buy Christmas gifts for the children staying on the Lion & Dolphin Ward at Royal Berkshire Hospital.
Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. On Thursday 2nd October 2025, I was lucky enough to win a signed Reading Football Club shirt. Rather than keeping it for myself, I wanted to turn it into something meaningful, so I’ve created this page to help raise money.
Every penny donated will go towards purchasing gifts from the Reading FC Club Shop, which I’ll personally deliver to the children ward in time for Christmas.
I can’t imagine how difficult it must be for families to have a child in hospital during the festive season. If this small gesture can bring even a little comfort or a few smiles, then it’s absolutely worth doing.
The page will remain open until the end of November, and any donation is appreciated. I’ll share receipts and updates to show exactly how the money is spent, and I’ll also post photos of the gifts being delivered to the hospital.
As a thank you, once the fundraiser closes, I’ll use Sorteos to randomly select one donor to receive the signed shirt (UK only). I will post it to you.
I know times are tough, and the world is heavy right now, but even the smallest contribution can help make a big difference to these children and their families.
Appreciate you all.
