At 11 days old we received a phone call from the hospital to tell us that we needed to urgently get to the hospital as something had been picked up on Harry’s heel prick test. When we arrived we were told that Harry had hypothyroidism after many tests we found out that Harry would be on medication for life.

In recognition of this we would like to raise money on the weekend of his first birthday for British Thyroid Foundation.

We work with medical professionals so our information is reliable and evidence based. We fund vital research into thyroid disease. Our telephone contacts and Facebook groups offer peer support and our local groups support you in your local community. We rely on donations and fundraising to continue our work.
