“My 4 year old nephew has a congenital heart defect. When I saw your charity on the list, I knew I had to run for you. If I can save a parent from going through what my sister had to go through when Jamie was born, the devastation, the grief from the realisation he may not survive, well, it will make my year” – Jo Marshall
Whatever your motivation, consider signing up and running for Tiny Tickers.
