£1520 !!!!!


That was the amazing total raised for Sophia by Auntie Emma !!

Auntie Emma hosted a "Girls' Night In For Sophia" at her house in Glasgow, raising £567 and then nearly trebled the total with a fantastic raffle. With the help of family and friends, she worked tirelessly organising the event, collecting raffle prizes and selling tickets. Thanks to everyone who supported and helped, especially Nana Eleanor x
Here's Sophia's favourite photo of her Auntie !!

Our Local Schools

While we were away having a break, the kids in our local schools certainly weren't !!
Over the last few weeks of term, there has been a wave of fundraising all over Oxfordshire. Carterton Community College started the ball rolling with a non-uniform day raising a brilliant £445.63. Church Cowley St James CE Primary then had there own  non-uniform day and cake sale, also raising over £400 !! Two days later Clanfield CE Primary had a non-uniform day, total raised to be confirmed. Another school, Burford Primary raised a fantastic £81 from cake and t-shirt sales. And finally, Brize Norton Primary took part in a sponsored walk, covering 290 miles and raising a mind-boggling £1377.62 !!!
We can not thank the organisers, teachers, parents and especially the amazing children of all of these schools enough. xxx

FITBeing Bootcamp


What a morning we had today at the FITBeing Bootcamp for Sophia on Witney Leys. We really had  a fantastic time being out through our paces by Toby & Bear. In fact, Sophia even managed to get round an improvised assault course while we were all warming up. A total of £133 was raised for Sophia thanks to a great turn out and Toby & Clare were also able to raise some money for their chosen charity, Macmillan Cancer.


Thank you to everyone who joined in and especially Toby & Clare Goodchild, who organised a great event for Sophia. Check out their website www.fitbeing.co.uk for some real inspiration.

A New Slide


Just received a brilliant garden slide for Sophia. It's at the perfect height for her, meaning she can do it all herself and Mummy and Daddy can have a sit down !!!
Thank you to Mr & Mrs Foreman for the great gift x x x

Thank You Jenny Rogers !!!


We can't thank this amazing woman enough. Our great, great friend Jenny Rogers wanted to do the 3 peaks with us but when she realised that she couldn't do it that weekend, she vowed to do something to raise money for Sophia.
So, Jenny started to train hard and on Sunday 14th July, ran the British 10 Km London Run on her own !! Not sure if Jenny wants me to post her time but it was a cracker !! And to top it all off, she raised an amazing £945 !!! All on her own !!!
Thank you Jenny, you are an absolute star x x x
