Help us raise £5000 this Christmas to ensure every baby and child who has open heart surgery at Leeds next year receives a precious gift from CHSF – a Katie Bear teddy!
On average around 500 babies and children have open heart surgery at Leeds every year.
Each one of these heart warriors will receive a precious gift from Children’s Heart Surgery Fund – a Katie Bear teddy!
Each teddy costs the charity £10, so we need to raise a total of £5,000 this Christmas to ensure next year’s young patients are given this special keepsake.
Our Give A Bear Hug campaign will put smiles on future faces and offer cuddles for life.
Your child, or someone you know, may have a Katie Bear they treasure. Katie has symbolised bravery and resilience for hundreds of young patients with CHD every year since CHSF began in 1988 – and you and your network can help us to reach our target.
Because of your donation this Christmas, Katie Bear can be there for babies and children next year! Thank you!
Your £10 can ensure next year’s heart warriors receive a treasured Katie Bear
