Giving in Celebration is a lovely way to support us on a special day. We are always so touched when people celebrating a birthday, christening, anniversary or wedding, request donations instead of presents.

Katie and Peter Kent did exactly that when they chose to support the hospital at the christening of their twin boys, Ethan and Aaron. The family has received constant support and reassurance from Birmingham Children’s Hospital since discovering that Ethan had a cleft lip.

The couple, from Stratford upon Avon, wanted to do something special to say thank you to the cleft team who in their words ‘have looked after Ethan with such love and care’.
