Story
Elsie is a wonderful, funny, determined, kind, brave 5 year old girl, she is just fantastic! Elsie has a type of Cerebral Palsy called Spastic Diplegia, the main effect of this for Elsie is that she cannot walk independently. Last year Elsie had major hip surgery which has had a big impact on her muscle strength. Elsie swims and horse rides which are fun activities to build up her core strength and she is working really hard. Cycling is another activity which will help her gain muscle strength and make her stronger, maximising her potential for more independent mobility. The trike will provide her with fun and she can ride with her pals and big brother.
Elsie and her pals are raising money towards a specialist trike. The trike is a Quest 88 Colt and costs approximately £1800. Here is Elsie testing out the trike with her big brother, Arthur!
Please sponsor Elsie and her friends for taking part in a sponsored bounce! Each child will bounce for 3 x 5 minutes (with breaks!).
You can join us at South Otterington Village Hall on the 19th August from 2pm -4pm, for fun, bouncing, afternoon tea and more.
Thank you! We appreciate your support.

6 years agoI would like to say a huge thank you to all who have donated. I have reduced the target as some of you may notice as we still have the bounce on the 19th and I am concerned that we will exceed our target. Thank you from all of us. We, but particularly Elsie cannot wait to get the trike. Xx
