I am joining ECHC in clocking up 250,000 Christmas steps in 25 days this December, to help bring festive cheer to children and families in hospital!

ECHC has transformed our trips to the hospital with the girls. From Therapets to crafting with the lovely people in the Hub - these experiences have so beautifully drawn the attention away from the nerves of hearing doctors say things they don't understand and from scary things like blood tests.

It fills me with so much confidence for the future that our girls now get excited about their hospital days. So this Christmas I've decided to get my big girl pants on and give something back!

All funds raised will go towards bringing some seasonal sparkle and festive fun to children, young people and families in hospital this Christmas making sure that they are always a child first, patient second.

I'm off to grab my Santa hat, tinsel and trainers and Step Into Christmas!

Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas!
