Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

2014 was a year full of emotions ... unfortunately at my 20 week scan we were told that our unborn child had a unilateral left side cleft lip, gum and palate. Not having ANY knowledge whatsoever of Cleft, our World was turned upside down. Thankfully with the help and support received from family, friends and indeed CLAPA our journey of welcoming Fletcher (Pip) into the world was made a much easier affair.
2015 again was a further challenge with untold hospital appointments, two major operations and a very emotional Mummy & Daddy. CLAPA has been a big part in our lives predominantly for teaching us about what problems a cleft child will face. They have answered all our questions and we have been provided comfort and understanding from other families that have gone through the same experiences.
So I will be running the 2016 Virgin London Marathon in honour of our beautiful son and to share our thanks and support to CLAPA.
Thank you for your support and sponsorship x
Wish me luck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
