A day to celebrate all the amazing people who care for, support and research to bettter the treatment and lives of people with Gaucher disease. 
We have raised an amazing £270 so far so thankyou all for you contributions, GOSH holds a special place in our life and hearts as a family, so we would love to raise as much as we can to give a little back. 

Practice swim

Swim 8k in October !!

So …. I’ve decide to help how I can to support the amazing efforts at Great Ormond Street Hospital, a place close to our families hearts.
Jackson has received amazing care here though out his life and this is a small way we can help to give something back.
As well as the care for Jackson they are also doing amazing research work on Gene Therapy, something we hope in the future can lead to further treatment options in Gaucher disease.
So to help support their efforts I’ve signed up to complete the October challenge of swimming 8k. The research they do and care they give is key to so many family’s futures so any support you can offer would be amazing and I’ll keep you all updated on my progress and thankyou for your support 

I’m swimming 8km in October for GOSH Charity!

I’m challenging myself to swim 8km this October to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity (GOSH Charity).

Childhood is special. It should be a time of joy, wonder, curiosity and fun. Of making friends, making mistakes, and growing into the adults we become. But it’s also fragile, and sometimes all too brief.

That’s why Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity raises funds to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. For the children from all over the UK who are treated by Great Ormond Street Hospital every day, for children with rare or complex illnesses everywhere, for this generation and all those to come. Because no childhood should be lost to serious illness.

And with every kilometre I swim, and every pound raised, we’ll be helping to give seriously ill children the best chance and the best childhood possible.

Please help me to achieve my goal by giving whatever you can; no amount is too small to make a difference.

Really good luck with this Emma. It's no mean fear when juggling two small boys. It's great to see how big and strong J has grown and I hope this helps GOSH help others just like him.
