As part of Safer Gambling Week, we want to highlight the steps we take to keep our supporters safe. You can read more about our social responsibility policies and find out how to self-exclude from our lottery here www.chsw.org.uk/lotteryterms

Born in early 2022, Fred's arrival was unexpectedly complex and quick. His parents Rhiannon and Tom, who live in Exeter, were told he had a form of brain damage, and he was referred to Little Bridge House.

Fred died in April 2022, surrounded by his family, at the hospice. Though his time was short, his impact was immeasurable. Rhiannon reflects:

"Fred passed away and we feel lucky that he had a chance to experience some peace in the beautiful setting that is Little Bridge House. The hospice have continued to support us, and we them. The amazing fundraising events they run have appealed to us and last year our team of 10 completed Ride for Precious Lives. Another opportunity for memory making and bringing our family together. Thank you for all the work you continue to do" ๐Ÿ’š
