Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

In the summer of 2020 Dylan had a fall and suffered a serious head injury. It was touch and go for a while but thanks to the incredible staff at Edinburgh Sick Kids Hospital Dylan made a full recovery. Throughout our summer in hospital and the subsequent months of rehabilitation, the medical, emotional and psychological support we received was absolutely faultless. 

Having seen first hand the amazing work that the charity does in and around the hospital to transform children's hospital experience, we wanted to help in a small way.

On March 19th Dylan (12), Ellen (10), Nico (12) and I (48) are going to run the Kelpies 5k to raise money for the Edinburgh Children's Hospital charity. 5k may not be a huge distance but it's further than most of us have run before and it's for a brilliant organisation. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
