Story

On 10th April 2010 my daughter Lexi was born at Worcester Hospital. When they discharged Lexi they told us she had developmental dysphasia of the right hip which needed urgent treatment. We were quickly referred to Birmingham Children's Hospital. Lexi was fitted with a Pavlik harness for 12 weeks to treat the dislocation and remained under the care of Birmingham Children's Hospital for 12months before  being fully discharged. 

I can not thank the staff enough for the successful treatment that Lexi received.  The care and commitment that the hospital gave her was second to none.


This is the reason why I have chosen the Birmingham Children's Hospital as my Charity
