Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Some of you may already know that I spent 5 days in the renal unit at Birmingham Children's Hospital with my daughter earlier this year. The staff were great, but there's no getting away from the fact that they could definately do with a better environment to make life a little better for the children. Some kids are there for months on end, the reality of which doesn't really hit home until you've spent some time in that situation. Just seeing the difference leaving the ward for half an hour made to my daughter made me realise how important the environment can be to the recovery process. BCH desperately needs a new renal unit and with your help we can try and make this happen sooner rather than later.
