Little Miss Edie Pops, our cheeky, ice cream eater, slap stick comedy lover, cute face creater, speedy driver. She is always up for fun and giggles and has fought so much in her years. Her life isn’t always easy but she never stops smiling. Thank you for all the donations, the love, the offers of help for her BIG build. We’d be lost without you all 💕 we hope to have more build updates very soon, but in the meantime, here are some snaps of Edith at her very best.

Every Monday Edith attends Riding for the disabled. It’s one of the many therapies that Edith has access to. She gains so much from riding; it’s a calm space, it works her core muscles and balance and offers immense joy and achievement in a supportive environment. Her happy face says it all 😍

Her new room will offer us the opportunity to do even more therapies at home as we will gain more space. More space to have a standing frame. More space to have her walker here. More space for therapies through play. It will make a BIG difference. 🤞🏻

Happy 11th birthday to our AWESOME Edith! Your day has been filled with fun, laughter, presents and cake…… just perfect!...

Today we are here to say a BIG thank you to some very special people. Firstly, in the Autumn Term our dear friend Jo organised a Year 6 Sponsored walk. Jo and the amazing Year 6s walked, ran, swam and danced their way to 6KM and raised a HUGE amount of money 🤩today that money paid for our new windows and doors. Thank you 😍

Secondly our windows have been fitted for FREE by Didcot Glass and Glazing! An incredibly generous offer and one we are very grateful for. Thank you ☺️

So, we are feeling very grateful, very lucky and very excited to see the windows and doors finally in place.

Goodbye to our glass roof, this felt like quite a big deal as it was such a lovely feature to our kitchen. BUT it’s also exciting as it means that the roof is progressing. If you could all do some weather dances to send us fair weather, that would be great, we really need a roof and currently we are not quite water tight 🤞🏻

Today the build project restarted 🤩🙌🏻the carpenters were here to start putting on the roof on the new building and the plan is to continue this work through, into our house, next week.

Beatrice was out supervising the work at 7:30am with Jeff, she loves to find out exactly what’s happening and always has the best questions.

Edith popped out to watch the Crane delivering materials, she’s fascinated by cranes so this was an exciting start to her day. 😍

How lucky we are 🥰🎄
