Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The CATS (childrens acute transport service) team take the skills of a paediatric intensive care unit ‘on the road’, to the bedside of critically ill children

Every year we donate our Christmas Card money to this little charity that were amazing with our son Vinnie when he required a transfer from our local Basildon hospital to Great Ormond Street ICU when he was just 3 years old. 

This year we have decided to spruce it up a bit and try to raise a bit more money for the team with a festive beard! Baubles and all! 

If you like the beard or just think he is nuts please take the time to make a small donation as a token of appreciation as we are so thankful for the wonderful service that CATS provided for our family which means that Vinnie is fit, well and thriving 9 year old today.


Thankyou for taking the time to read this and from our family to you- 

We wish you a Very Merry Christmas & A Happy New Year.
