It's bewildering and unsettling for anyone going into hospital but especially for children and that is why we are a fundraising hospital. We raise funds to enhance the experience of our patients by providing state of the art medical equipment and facilities and creating a child-friendly environment.

Story

Joshua is The Apnea Kid and is the reason we are raising money for Birmingham Children's Hospital where he is currently being cared for.

He was born early at 34 weeks, and is having apneas and seizures that result in oxygen de-saturations. In-between episodes he’s a seemingly healthy boy. He loves cuddles and those wrist rattle things and hates loud noises and his ventilator mask. He’s had a rough start and is a constant source of worry, but he’s ours and we love him.

Stay strong, stay hopeful, stay positive.
