It’s here again – #FundraisingFriday – meet this week’s fundraisers going that extra mile for Children’s Heart Surgery Fund

Beaverbrooks, Leeds – in memory of Lucas Tewson

Simon & Sam Tewson said:

The wonderful staff at Beaverbrooks in Leeds came to know of our precious son Lucas and his complex type of congenital heart disease (known as Shone’s Syndrome) when we visited the shop to buy rings for our short notice wedding. They were touched by his courage, bravery and strength. We promised to bring Lucas to the shop to meet them but unfortunately our beautiful baby boy passed away on 18th July and we were unable to fulfil that promise. On hearing the sad news, the Beaverbrooks staff took the decision to award Children’s Heart Surgery Fund their charity donation for the year in memory of Lucas.

The cheque for a staggering £1200 was presented in the store on 19th September.

Thank you Lucas for the impact you have made and thank you Beaverbrooks for your kind and thoughtful generosity.
