The gift of confidence

Grant awarded on 30th April 2014

Imagine…

Your Mum gave up work a few years ago to become the full-time carer for your Dad who is registered blind.  Life at home is tough and at the age of 15 your world is already full of challenges.  Turns out though that you have an incredibly rare form of breast cancer and have to undergo the trauma not only of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, but a mastectomy too.  The physical impact is unimaginable on such a young lady, but the emotional and psychological strain is immense too.

Your support has made a difference…

The money that supporters of the Rob George Foundation have raised has enabled us to help with the massive expense of specialist clothes that will take the prosthesis, which will hopefully give this young lady the confidence to return to school, mix with her mates and hopefully get back to swimming – which she used to enjoy.
