Family Sponsorship Appeal


To sponsor our Heart Families whilst they care for their sick heartchild suffering from Congenital Heart Disease & whilst their children undergo their open heart surgeries, which results in long periods away from their friends & family and lengthy hospital stays. This places great financial & emotional stress on our heart families - 75% are from the regions - and they struggle to cope without family accommodation present at the hospital & time off work without pay in many instances.

How will the funds be used?


To help ease the financial burden on our Families with family accommodation, meals, travel, parking & utilitiy accounts as many of our families run two households (one at home & one at the hospital) for many months of the year whilst their child recovers from their open - heart surgery/surgeries. It can take our young infants & babies several months to recover & many are unable to leave the hospital until they recover fully & can 'feed' again & put on weight. We also offer counselling support services to assist our families & in-hospital comfort items such as food & information booklets & other resources to assist our Heart Families - which is where the funds will also be used.
