Poppy Fields Appeal - Charity for 2018/19
Our chosen charity this year is Poppy Fields Appeal

Birmingham Children's Hospital is an amazing place that treats children from all over the UK. We were so grateful for the fantastic level of care Poppy received there that we began fundraising in April 2004. To date we have presented over £230,000 to the hospital for much needed neurosurgical equipment and to support research into childhood brain tumours. Over 400 children are diagnosed with a brain tumour every year in the UK. Of these, over 100 will not survive. The research carried out by Poppy’s Consultant Oncologist, Professor Andrew Peet and his colleagues, is vital to improve survival rates and quality of life for children like Poppy.
