Story
Our beautiful daughter Sophia passed away suddenly and unexpectedly at just eleven weeks old.
Words cannot express how we feel, and probably never will.
On the terrible day that we lost our daughter, medical professionals did everything they could in an attempt to save her life. The Great Western Air Ambulance also despatched a helicopter to our house, which as well as potentially providing quick transport to hospital, also carried critical care doctors.
The Air Ambulance is a charity that relies on public donations to fly. They need to raise over £1 million a year to operate, and it costs them over £1000 to respond to an emergency situation.
We are extremely humbled and touched by the efforts of the NHS and also this charity. In order to allow the air ambulance to continue to help families in need such as ours, we wish to raise money in lieu of flowers at the funeral for this amazing charity.
