Story

An Amazing experience helping ENF in delivering Scotlands first integrated specialist play centre for Disabled young and their families in Inverness serving the Highlands.

Many of you will know Rebekah’s story from when she was 4 years old.  If you don’t then here is her blog:

http://rebekahinnesupdates.blogspot.com/

Our lives were turned upside down when Rebekah was diagnosed with Landau kleffner syndrome & Neurosarcoidosis at the young age of 4 (2008) Jonathan & I were informed (by Consultants at Royal Hospital for sick children in Edinburgh) that at best she would be confined to a wheelchair, passed on to Adult services, mute or worst case - death.  High dose steroids, numerous EEG scans, MRI’s/CT’s followed for years. December 2016 arrived and we were shocked when the same Consultants informed us that (despite checking all the scans again) she was “healed”. It’s amazing and we are all so thankful for this remarkable event in Rebekah’s life.  

The Haven Centre in Inverness is a much needed facility and one that we would most definitely have made use of. Children/young adults & families are really looking forward to this centre opening this summer.  

SMILES are going to be across the faces of everyone when it is open.  But…we still need to fundraise.  For us as a family, participating in this skydive means:

H - Happy to fundraise

A - Anticipation!

V - Very excited

E - Exhilirated 

N - Needing cash please!!! ££££££

Please give to this fantastic cause 👏🏻
