Story

Hi, I'm Emily. I am 11 years old. From the age of 14 months, I have been supported by the Edinburgh Children's Hospital, and I would like to give something back.

I hope the money I raise helps the hospital to continue its fantastic work with children and young people like me. 

My Dad and I are very excited to take on a monthly challenge throughout 2023. We are going to choose a different activity every month. In January, we are both going to stop eating sugar. That's no sweets, cakes, chocolate, or sugary drinks. It's going to be difficult, but we're excited to try and achieve it together. 

In February, we are going to go vegetarian, which I've been wanting to try for several months. My Dad might really struggle with that one! 

We will keep you posted on future challenges for the rest of the year.

Please give generously to this very important charity. Thank you!
