We support the Leeds Congenital Heart Unit to improve the lives of those with CHD

Story

As you may know, Kieran has joined the board of trustees for the
Children’s Heart Surgery Fund in Yorkshire who provide life-saving medical equipment for the Leeds Congenital Heart Unit, parent accommodation for families and vital ward resources. CHSF are wholly funded by donations which allow them to help over 22,500 babies, children and adults living with congenital heart disease (CHD) each year. 

Over the next six months of 2020 we want to raise significant funds for Children’s Heart Surgery Fund and have set ourselves a target of £58,000 because this could cover the cost of a life-saving ECHO 
machine. This might seem like a high goal, but this amazing Yorkshire charity has seen a significant drop in income since the Covid-19 pandemic and they are forecast to lose £300,000 of their income this year due to cancelled fundraising events. We want to help CHSF continue their vital work caring for babies and children born with a heart problem in Yorkshire and their families.

Find out more about their work by watching this short video. This is Amelie’s story.

There are plenty more children in need of lifesaving care who need donations to have a chance of living their best life like we get to every day and in a bid to raise funds our first fundraising activity in this series is "Challenge Kieran" - Kieran has agreed to subject himself to all kinds of unknown torture for the right level of donation...
