Flying Seagulls and Bessie

Morning all, we have two important nominations this week that we’ve chosen to split the pot with. Firstly, first time nominator Mike has been in touch regarding 12 year old Bessie who has Leukaemia and her self employed parents are needing to raise funds to stay by her side whilst she continues treatment. We wish her and her family all our love. 


Our second nomination is The Flying Seagull Project who, in their own words say:


“Around the world, millions of childhoods are being lost to poverty, isolation, conflict and forced displacement. This causes lasting harm and cannot be ignored. Everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances, should grow up feeling special and valuable, with warm and happy memories of play and joyous laughter.”

And they deliver play sessions and bring warmth, kindness and happiness to places the world over where all too often it’s in short supply. Read more of their incredible work here: https://www.theflyingseagullproject.com


Thank you as always for all you do. You’re amazing

Here’s both nominations in full: 


Hi Joe


I would like to nominate Bessie, a 12 year old girl who lives local to us in St Ives, Cornwall who has certainly been through an awful lot in her young life.


Full story here…


Best regards

Alan


Hi there you lovely lot!

I’d love to nominate the flying seagull project. They are a group of wonderful entertainers who spend their time over the summer entertaining kids at festivals all over and use the money to then travel all over  the world visiting refugee camps, crisis zones, hospital wards, giving  these children some much needed light, love and hope. 


Hope the above link works!!


Lots of love
