165 - Buying a special needs buggy for autistic child - June 2024
With this donation of £330 we have been able to support a family who have a 4 year old autistic daughter. Our member asked if we might be able to fund a special buggy for the girl, who is unable to walk safely to nursery - a normal buggy is no longer suitable for her, and is causing a lot of stress whenever they try to leave the house. Having a child with additional needs brings so many challenges, many of which add additional and unexpected financial strains. We are so pleased to have the opportunity to buy the family this special buggy, which will mean the girl no longer has to suffer the distress and discomfort of her feet dragging along the floor when they go out. We know it will make a massive difference to the very difficult daily life of this family and we are really happy to help. As always we are grateful for this thoughtful nomination and thank all our members for continuing to put your £1 into the pot to allow us to help.
