This invaluable Hospice to be based in Cornwall will help families with sick children who currently have to cross the border into Devon to use the specialist facilities and care in their own county.

The aim of the Precious Lives appeal is to save Cornish families long journeys to existing hospices at Barnstaple or Bristol.

Fundraisers include people like Sheila Richards from Millbrook.听She was inspired to fundraise after her baby granddaughter had a health scare. She sent in her pound coin and also held a Curry Night at her home.听

She raised 拢50 and is planning another similar event,听she explains,听"In Cornwall we need somewhere like Little Bridge house, exactly the same support.听 It's a long way to go to north Devon with a sick child.听 If it's within our county, that alleviates suffering."听

Emma says, "an amazing response, the people of Cornwall are so generous.听This is such a fantastic facility that could be brought to the county and so needed by so many families.听The people of Cornwall are doing what they usually do and pulling the stops out."
