FLORENCE'S BRACELET SALE - april 2026

---

For the third year running Isla's cousin Florence and her friends made and sold bracelets, this time at the Hockley Easter Trail. They raised an incredible £185.50 which will be enough to provide a Ray of sunshine gift to a baby or young child being treated at GOSH. 

A memorable weekend for us all with Isla's Uncle Dan and Carl's cousin's partner Becky who ran for our charity at the Barcelona marathon. It was an incredible, emotional and beautiful day for us all as family members from both sides came to watch. They both did brilliant - completing their first ever marathons and raising £2,035.56 and £2768.61 each for the foundation. Special mention to Carl's cousin Frankie who signed up and trained right up to the event, but sadly suffered an injury meaning he had to pull out. You'll just have to sign up for next year Frankie!

Starting on Friday 13th March, Isla's Auntie Sarah and her friends from The Mortgage Mum (with help from some of their children!) walked 1.3million steps over 13 days - completing their goal of raising £1.3k for the charity! The number 13 was deliberately chosen as a theme, to represent the number of months Isla was with us. An incredible achievement and we can't thank everyone who got involved enough.
