Every time Christmas comes around as a family we get excited for the festive season but it also reminds us of a very different year. In December 2013 Imogen was born very poorly, we spent the Christmas period in hospital where the Doctors and nurses gave up time with their families to battle saving the lives of babies, just like Imogen. 10 years later our gratitude has not decreased, we are so thankful for what they did and who they have given us. Imogen has grown up to be the most delightful young lady, who we are beyond proud of. We came very close to loosing our little girl and without the medical knowledge and equipment available at Colchester NICU she would not be here. We will continue to raise money for them each year as a way to say thank you to them for the amazing gift they have given us and to help many other families who will continue to benefit from the ward.

We are being joined by Imogen’s brother, cousins, aunties and uncles in taking part in a Santa run around Colchester Castle Park for the 9th time, if you have any spare donations towards a worthy cause we would be very grateful.

Thank you
