Story

Hello there lovely :-)

Welcome to my magical page, where you can contribute to the most beautiful smiles, giggles and genuine happiness of a little person spending every second of their shortened lives like it is their birthday, all thanks to *+Rainbows Hospice+*

The twinkly-sparkly, warm friends at Rainbows welcomes each and every precious little angel into their vibrant, excitable home, exploding with colourful decor, toys, music, and lots of free cuddles and friendships. 

And the parents... the painful heartache, the strenuous exhaustion of daily duties, self-doubt, tears shed in privacy, consistent acts of bravery resulting in energy deficit... and the fear of not knowing if their beautiful little miracle will push through to live another blessed day; it's all softened, it slowly melts, it's treated with love with a shoulder to lean on and a sight of joy in their little angel's eyes. 

We are survivors of life, we are incredibly blessed and we are lucky to be alive. Life is taken for granted far too often and for me, personally, discovering all about this wonderful charity and knowing that my love and effort could make a difference to the happiness of each beautiful, strong child spending their shortened lives happy, full of joy and simply worry-free, makes me want to do something extraordinary and squeeze out as much love as I could give. So for this, I will be training to walk the Great Wall of China over 9 days in September 2015, and I plead for your help to help me raise £2,900 or more for these beautiful angels. Let's spread the happiness and realise how precious each and every day really is. 

Gigantic thank you for reading my page, have a truly beautiful day. 

Laura :-) xxx
