A family at Little Bridge House

Precious Lives

Thanks to the wonderful generosity of the county, we at 成人论坛 Radio Cornwall have managed to raise an astonishing 拢26,000 so far for the Precious Lives Appeal. We would like to kindly thank each and every one of those people who have sent in money.

This invaluable Hospice to be based in Cornwall will help families with sick children who currently have to cross the border into Devon to use the specialist facilities and care in their own county.

The aim of the Precious Lives appeal is to save Cornish families long journeys to existing hospices at Barnstaple or Bristol.

Fundraisers include people like Sheila Richards from Millbrook.听She was inspired to fundraise after her baby granddaughter had a health scare. She sent in her pound coin and also held a Curry Night at her home.听

She raised 拢50 and is planning another similar event,听she explains,听"In Cornwall we need somewhere like Little Bridge house, exactly the same support.听 It's a long way to go to north Devon with a sick child.听 If it's within our county, that alleviates suffering."听

"When we launched the appeal we could never have imagined raising so much money in so little time. Thank you very much for your support."

Acting Managing Editor, Daphne Skinnard

Emma Parkes from Truro has a teenage son called Freddie, he has muscular dystrophy and the family enjoy 14 nights a year respite care at Little Bridge House.听

Emma says, "an amazing response, the people of Cornwall are so generous.听This is such a fantastic facility that could be brought to the county and so needed by so many families.听The people of Cornwall are doing what they usually do and pulling the stops out."

成人论坛 Radio Cornwall is pledging its support to the 拢5m appeal for the children's hospice in the county.

Acting Managing Editor Daphne Skinnard explains, "when we launched the appeal we could never have imagined raising so much money in so little time.

"Thank you very much for your support.听It just shows the strength of spirit in Cornwall to make things happen.听We know the new children's hospice will make so much difference to local youngsters and their families, which is why we decided to support the appeal.听

"Please let us know if you are arranging any events..or if you'd like to make a donation."

You can send your money to 成人论坛 Radio Cornwall, Phoenix Wharf, Truro TR1 1UA.听

Cheques should be made payable to the 成人论坛 Radio Cornwall Appeal (CCF) and if you are a UK tax payer you can gift aid your donation - please make sure we have your name and full address.
