I've raised £1000 to Go towards a life changing SDR operation for a 14year old boy.
Organised by Emma Oliver
I am raising money by shaving off my hair for a 14 year old boy called Thomas. He has quadriplegic spastic cerebral palsy. The last few years he has been suffering with his spasticity giving him pain. His consultant has recommended he has a SDR operation, unfortunately it is not funded by the NHS. The operation will cost £16,000 and then he will need intense private physiotherapy, so the family are trying to raise £25,000.
