Our little Rose has been a fighter from the very start.

Born with Down syndrome and complex medical needs, including heart surgery in her first year, Rose has faced more hospital stays and procedures than most children will in a lifetime. But through it all, she’s shown an incredible strength and a smile that melts the hearts of everyone she meets.

Life with Rose is full of love and laughter — but also many challenges. She’s tube-fed, she's still working hard to eat and drink on her own, and she needs ongoing therapies and hospital visits. Our family’s world revolves around making sure she has the best possible care and the happiest childhood we can give her.

This year, we’re raising money for the British Heart Foundation in honour of the support and research that gives children like Rose a fighting chance. We’ll be doing this as part of the Truck Fest South West Raffle — with our amazing local community and businesses helping to donate prizes.

Every pound raised will go towards vital research, treatments, and support for families like ours.

If you’re able to, please donate — whether it’s the price of a coffee or something more — and help us make a difference. Rose’s journey has shown us just how powerful community, kindness, and medical research can be.

Thank you for being part of her story. 💖
