Charlotte Pickering is raising money for Friends of PICU
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Charlotte · 22 August 2020

We fundraise to buy equipment, fund major projects, desensitise the medical environment and buying a new ambulance for the Children's Intensive Care Unit at Southampton University Hospital. Caring for critically ill children from across the south of England and the Channel Islands.

Story

In 2008, I suffered a massive brain haemorrhage with an AVM and an Aneurysm. I was on holiday on the Isle of Wight at the time, I was airlifted by coastguards helicopter and was taken to Southampton. I had to be operated on immediately. In all, I have had 5 brain operations. 4 of them were in Southampton. I was 11 years old when I had my brain injury. At the time I was the only child in the whole of Europe to have had the brain injury I had. I was a unique case!


Doing this abseil is my way of raising money for PICU. I am so grateful to PICU for saving my life.
