Story

My name is Lily and I am 8 years old and I have cerebral palsy and autism.. when I was born I was taken into intensive care little did my mum and dad know I had a bleed on my brain which left me with this condition.. The first few years of my life was the hardest trying to learn to walk chew food and Communicate with people. 

Last year in lockdown I started going out for walks with my family and ended up doing one of haven house sparkle walks which I see on Greg shepherds Instagram  who I love to watch and follow,  I ended up walking 14km. After looking into What haven house do and seeing the amazing work they do to help children and families with 247 care I decided to start a just giving page and put my disability to use and walked 15km, I ended up raising £41,600 which helped haven house through the terrible Covid crisis. 

Haven house have been my biggest supporters and have given me the confidence I needed they have made me realise anyone can achieve anything with a disability or no disability there is always someone worse then you. 

Haven house made me feel like a superhero so I have decided for my 9th birthday to do another walk and help them as much I can. Please donate to my page ❤️
