Massive thanks to Buxton Primary School for your donation of £92.20 ❤️ Lets Do It Anyway Charitable Trust’ was one of 6 charities to benefit from the Parental donations during Buxton Primary School Christmas Productions. We attended the productions and they were fabulous, congratulations to all involved! The donation was ear marked and contributed towards buying a new kit for ‘Norwich Lowriders Wheelchair Basketball’ team. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Buxton Primary for their kind and generous donation, every penny really does make a difference. Thank you so much to all involved, without the support of people like you, ‘Lets Do It Anyway Charitable Trust’ would not be possible.

Wow! An absolutely incredible brave speech, a humbling watch from start to finish. The one thing this young man was certain of at the time of this speech was his moral strength. He spoke passionately & said "Making a concious decision to be a person who doesn't give up, even when it would be easy to. Face your fears everyday, none of us get out of life alive, so be gallant, be great, be gracious and be grateful for the opportunities that you have. The opportunity to learn fro...m the people who walked before you, and to those who walk beside you. The challenge for all of us, is to continue to grow and develop for the better. The future is truly in our hands, forget about long term dreams, lets be passionately dedicated to the pursuit of short term goals, micro ambitious, work with passion and pride on what is infront of us.We don't know where we might end up, or when it might end up. I don't know where it goes from here for any of us, for you, for me, where ever we go, or whatever we do, may we always be friends when we meet again. I hope for the better" ❤️

#Decemberwishes - Here are a 3 pictures kindly sent to us by #MileCross #Primary #School from when we delivered Wishes to 4 unsuspecting pupils in December. Each pupil received their special surprises after being nominated by the Teachers for being so brave through a very tough year for each one of them. Look at their faces, a picture really does paint a thousand words! ❤️❤️

New Year Wish for Ellie ❤️ Beautiful Ellie was diagnosed with Kidney Cancer when she was just two years old and her Mum wrote to us just after Ellie got to ring the "End of Treatment Bell" one year ago at the age of three. Ringing the bell was a huge milestone for Ellie, her Mummy, Daddy, two brothers and sister, a moment for the whole family to celebrate the end of gruelling Chemo Therapy treatment for Ellie, which she had to endure from May 2016 to January 2017. Ellie con...tinues to have regular hospital visits and blood tests to keep an eye on her health, but she is doing well with the support of her family.
On New Years Day we visited Ellie and her family and one of the first things you notice other than the lovely close family, is Ellie’s beautiful mass of blonde hair which has grown back curly,
When someone you love has to face cancer, particularly someone so young, it is such a tough situation for the whole family. With this in mind, we wanted to give the whole family something to look forward to, so the whole family went along to see the Pantomime Aladdin at Norwich Theatre Royal, they will also be going along to Pepper Pig World later this year. Ellie also likes Dollies, so she received lots of goodies including a pram, pushchair, cot, dollies etc and also some Chest of Drawers for her bedroom.
This is the nomination we received from Amy Sheppard Ellie’s Mum:-
“Hello I would like to nominate Ellie Sheppard age 3, she was diagnosed with cancer last may for a wilms tumour ( kidney ) , she is now been 9 months of treatment, She inspires me because she went though the horrible times of the cancer rollercoaster ride, most of it she took in her own stride with a smile and was so so brave and she was only 2 at the time, I was a mess and still couldn’t believe it was happening to Ellie , but she kept me going with how brave she was, so it would be fantastic if she got a lovely surprise to make up for what a horrible year she had last year also what she missed out on ! Thank you ,
Amy Sheppard”
There are no amount of wishe that would ever be enough for Eillie and her family, but if we had to wish for one thing, of course that would be good health and happiness always ❤️
The funding of the New Year Wish is all thanks to the support received and proceeds raised for our 2018 Boxing Day Dip, so thank you to everyone for coming along.

#Decemberwish - Dad Scot, Grace 10 & George aged 6
Thank you to Cheryl Glinwell for nominating this special family for a special treat. Dad scott and his children, Grace and George are going through such a difficult time after the recent loss of their Mummy to awful Cancer. The one Wish this family would love more than anything is to have their beloved Mummy and wife with them now and although no amount of treats will ever replace the special memories that Grace, George and... their Dad Scott have of their Mummy Donna, Cheryl wanted to surprise them with something special to put a smile on their face in this tough time. So after Cheryl managed to get Uncle Craig in on the secret to ensure the family were home, we managed to surprise them all earlier today. Scott was more than a little surprised when we knocked on the door tonight with Christmas bags in hands! Grace likes all things Crafting and George likes Board Games, so they received a bag of goodies each. The family also received a trip to Whipsnade Zoo with accommodation to give them something to look forward to and to create more special memories. ❤️🧡
Here is Cheryl's original nomination... "5th November 2018 Hi We are a Childminding setting providing childcare for two amazing children in the school holidays Grace age 10 and George age 6. We are nominating them after a very difficult year with their mummy being poorly with cancer. Sadly Donna passed away just over a week ago. The children are amazing and were a huge support to her with such a positive attitude. I have no doubt this Christmas will be difficult for them both and their wonderful daddy Scott. Please consider surprising them with a treat, because making happy memories is so important. Many thanks Cheryl Glinwell Apple Tree Childminding"
