We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to The Hospital Saturday Fund for their continued support. Last Thursday we received a grant at the HSF Charity Reception which took place at the Mansion House, Dublin. This grant will play a vital role in expanding our teen respite and recreation offerings.
Thank you Hospital Saturday Fund for helping us to achieve our mission of enriching and enhancing the lives of those in Ireland who live with Spina Bifida and/or Hydrocephalus. 💙
