peasepud 59 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 You may have seen yesterdays Ronnie front page, if not here it is again > http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/north-east-...72703-24380936/ Sophies appeal is something that the NUSC is trying to help and on Saturday 30 of her family and friends will be carrying out a sponsored walk from Stadium of Light to SJP and should arrive at about 2pm. We're waiting to see if they will have permission to collect outside the ground but either way they will be collecting somewhere, if you see them please stick a quid or two in their buckets. They are also collecting old mobile phones and now gold (broken necklaces, earrings etc) so if you've got an old Nokia or Motorola and that old Run DMC style chain that now looks a bit naff on a 45 year old accountant why not drop them over to them too. You can also donate online at http://www.justgiving.com/Sophie-appeal/ dont forget to tick the Gift Aid box to maximise your donation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26609 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Very sad. That's an incredible amount of money to raise though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peasepud 59 Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 Devastating, Ive met Sophie and various members of her family a couple of times through the work the Trust was doing to help. Lovely little girl and when I met her it was literally a week after I found out I was going to be a father. Seeing a kid like that, suffering from both the cancer and its treatment yet still sitting laughing is both inspirational and heartbreaking and at that point in time made me realise just what was involved in parenthood. I cant imagine what her family are going through at this moment, no amount of stuff beforehand could prepare you for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
