Please meet Jessica. On Monday she joined us to see Nickelback along with Dylan, Abigail and Corey who attend Claire House Children’s Hospice. Here she is with Chad and the boys! We’re gearing up for our next auctions which begin on May 26th. This time around we are helping to raise funds for a very special project for Jessica. She has a rare condition called Moebious syndrome. This is a neurological condition that primarily affects her muscles. She has poor mobility so needs to be supported most of the time, she is also deaf and non-verbal and requires oxygen. She also has low bone density.
Jessica is like any other child – she loves to be outside, but also at age 11 doesn’t want mummy to be with her constantly. She is unable to play in her own garden alone as its uneven and she can often fall. As a result of her low bone density this can lead to breaks and fractures. Her Mum is raising funds to create a safe space for Jessica which will enable her to gain some independence and grow as a person, but the sensory equipment, artificial grass and paved areas on the wish list for Jessica’s safe space are expensive, which is why we’re aiming to raise as much as we can to help make Jessica’s world a more beautiful and safe place to play. chART are looking to fund the sensory equipment Jessica needs. Let’s help give Jessica the garden she deserves!
