Story
Welcome to Sotto Lounges just giving page!
This year as part of Lounge Aid we are supporting My Shining Star!
They are a children's cancer charity that was founded officially in 2016 but the story began back in 2014. A group of people got together as they took part in a very large fundraising campaign for a local little girl named Ruby Laura. This campaign spearheaded by their founder, Anita Marinelli raised an enormous £600,000 for her treatment in just 10 months.
The campaign was a real eye opener and it did not take them long to realise the significant impact cancer has on not only the child diagnosed, but on the whole family. They met other families in similar heart breaking situations and they realised that they had to do more.They initially said that if they could help a further 10 families, it would be a job well done. To date, they have supported well over 5,000 families in the UK.
We are pleased to say that that Ruby Laura is now in remission from Neuroblastoma.
