Story
Emily’s Gift is an Appeal, under the umbrella of The Pied Piper Appeal that was launched on March 10th 2023, founded by Julie Kent MBE. Their mission is to raise £500,000 by 10 March 2024 to fund the employment of a psychologist for 10 years. This will ensure all children and their families receive psychological support while their child has cancer treatment at the Emily Kent Unit at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital and when they are in remission. It shocking to know that this service does not currently exist.
The effects of childhood cancer can be devastating on the child and their families, especially the parents and their siblings. We at Spinavita want to help Emily's Gift's quest to raise money so this support can be put in place.
Please join us on 17th September 2023, meet at 9am at Spinavita HQ. We will also be wearing gold/yellow in support of childhood cancer month.
