We fundraise for Cardiff and Vale hospitals to enhance the care provided by the NHS

Story

On Jan 10th 2015 our daughter, Martha was born with a very rapid heart
beat (double what a baby would normally have) It's technical name is
PJRT SVT ...and is basically an electrical short circuit in her heart.She
was cared for by the amazing staff at the Neonatal ward of University
Hospital Wales, and the staff of the Children's Heart Unit for Wales,
and after 4 weeks we were able to take her home.She's doing
fantastically well, and we know that without the love and support of her
hospital angels, she could have been very poorly. We want to
say a huge thank you by fundraising in lots of different ways throughout
the rest of 2015, and being able to donate at least £10,000 to the
Children's Heart Unit and the Neonatal Ward at UHW before Martha's first birthday. We'd love your help and support - thank you so so much Michelle, Rick, Will and Martha xxxxx
