Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I (Abbie) and my partner (jamie) will be doing this sky dive for CLIC Sargent as they are close to our hearts and we first hand have benefited from there support! 

In June 2020 our son Noah, who was than 2, was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour, a rare form of cancer, he started chemotherapy and is still receiving it weekly and will be just under a year, he fights so hard and is so brave but having the support of CLIC Sargent made it so much easier for us! They helped us get the support we need and fund the extra costs of families that need in when in hospital, they also help with things like overnight and wash bags for those unexpected admissions! 

We are lucky enough we haven’t had to use the facility I’m about to speak about but believe it’s so important, They currently have 10 Homes from Home close to hospitals in eight cities in the UK There Homes from Home are a free place for families to stay when their child is going through cancer treatment. They’re close to principal treatment centres, helping families avoid the extra financial burdens of travel, accommodation and food costs. They also allow young cancer patients to be close to their loved ones, keeping the family together at a difficult time.

They help with all the extra costs cancer can bring but also emotionally for everyone 

All of this survives off charity and good people and the current pandemic like many has took a toll! So please if you can donate anything please do!! You are not just donating to the charity but helping so many families like us!
