GREAT THINGS we've funded The children’s neuroscience and major trauma and rehabilitation unit, was gifted over £100,000 thanks to our fundraisers who took part in our 2017 Bristol to Paris Cycle Challenge. The unit provides essential care for children suffering from traumatic brain injuries, brain tumours, epilepsy and cerebral palsy. Funds have improved equipment and created an inspiring environment to help children like Ben re-learn basic daily tasks. More projects we've been able to fund include period packs for young patients who don't have access to sanitary products, cutting edge swallowing evaluation equipment, and an interactive projector for the starlight ward.
