I'm cycling from London to Paris over 4 days with with the John Lewis Partnership Property Services Supply Chain team to raise money for Evelina Childrens Heart Organisation (ECHO)
ECHO’s mission is to provide support for children and young people with heart conditions who receive treatment at the Evelina Children’s Hospital and the outreach clinics at local General Hospitals attended by Evelina Cardiologists. They also extend a lifeline to their family & carers. They provide information, friendship and moral support from infancy to adulthood, especially at times of high anxiety for the patient and/or his or her family/carers as well as to supply equipment to the hospital which will improve the patient/family experience both as an inpatient and at home. Their close working relationship with the hospital enables them to provide vital patient voice to help Guy’s & St Thomas’s NHS Trust shape its services for congenital heart disease.
