Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As our beautiful edith still struggles to talk I felt I really wanted to try and raise money for a charity that helps children with communication difficulties, while raising awareness on this subject too.

Edith as you know is amazing. She is funny, clever and beautiful. I'm so proud of her everyday but she just can't talk. She is beginning to make steps forward through the speech therapists, nursery, family and friends, but as we've been told this is long term and with hard work from edith hopefully soon she'll be able to bring her communication up to her cognitive skills. We are lucky we've picked this up while she's young so she's got lots of time to make progress 💕
