This building will provide new purpose-built maternity and children\u2019s units, an improved major emergency department and one of the biggest critical care units in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, imagine our excitement when the UHD charity asked if we at Awesome Archie non profit would like to be official fundraisers! We of course said YES!!! What a privilege to be able to support such a worthy cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To put our support plan into action, we kicked off by adding lots of little local fundraising events into our diary ( details will follow) and added the BEACH appeal information to our in school assemblies. This week we made an assembly it even more exciting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daisy (Archie&#8217;s baby sister) has always been one of his biggest cheerleaders. Superhero siblings like her, have to compromise so much to ensure the correct care of their loved one. She has FOREVER been a support for Archie and wants to continue as she grows older to help others like him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daisy decided that she wanted to organise an after school bake sale to not only raise money for the BEACH appeal, but to spread awareness of neurodivergency. She launched this by hosting an assembly that she incredibly  presented ON HER OWN!!!  We are obviously enormously proud.  See her in action here \u23ec<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/reel\/2159933321067457?locale=en_GB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/reel\/2159933321067457?locale=en_GB<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, the Bake Sale itself is only open to school pupils and their families however, if you would like to contribute to the fund then you can scan the QR code below.
