It's Foundation Fundraiser Friday! Today, we want to wish a heartwarming thank you to Connal’s family! 💜
Connal has been a frequent patient in Ward 29 (our Children’s Ward) at Ninewells Hospital. To say a special thank you for the care he has received, Connal’s amazing dad laced up his walking boots and took on the epic challenge of walking the West Highland Way! 🏔️🎒
The money raised from his incredible journey was split between Down Syndrome Scotland and Ward 29. Thanks to the family's phenomenal fundraising efforts, Ward 29 was presented with a magnificent cheque for £1,862.80, along with an incredibly generous £400 worth of gift vouchers! 🎁
These donations make a massive difference in the lives of our youngest patients, helping us provide extra comforts, toys, and support when they need it most.

To Connal and his entire family—thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, your generosity, and for giving back to . You are all absolute superstars! ⭐️
