George was born in late July and immediately underwent life saving surgery at The Bristol Royal Hospital for Children. Complications have meant that he has had subsequent surgeries and only recently moved from the intensive care unit to the high dependancy ward, where he continues to have 24/7 care. His team of specialists, consultants and nursing staff are utterly exceptional in everything they do. Thanks to them, George is a happy and much loved little warrior 💙

We, George's immediate family, are running the Bristol Half Marathon to raise money for this incredible organisation. It is impossible for us to ever properly repay the team who continue to support and care for George but by raising this money we hope to ensure that another child in critical need has the same access to this world class organisation.
