Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Elijah was born on 20th June 2016 with a severe heart condition. Elijah lived most of his life in hospital, only getting home for day trips. One of our favourite things to do was to take him out on a family walk along the tow path. Therefore, on his birthday, we will walk 5 miles along the Lagan, 1 mile for each month he was with us.

Another highlight of those 5 months was our 24 hour trip to the "special hotel" as we called it - The Nothern Ireland Childrens Hospice. We will never forget getting to go swimming as a family of 6. That 'hotel' was an amazing place!!

About the charity

This year at Northern Ireland Children's Hospice we cared for over 370 children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions, in both our inpatient unit - Horizon House and in the local community. We rely on your generous donations to continue to fund our vital services.
