Heart month 💙❤️More than 1000 newborn babies leave hospital with an undetected congenital heart condition in the UK every year so it’s vital to know the signs. This post is very important and may help to save a life so please share.

Merry Christmas to all of our lovely supporters! 🎅🏼💙❤️we hope you all have a a special day with your loved ones xx

Today, there are lots of babies/ children/ teenagers in hospital that unfortunately cannot be at home with their families! 🥲
Santa and his lovely helper will deliver hampers to the cardiac ward and Picu at the Leicester royal infirmary! We are sure they will love them and appreciate the vouchers in there for both patients and parents- we hope they raise some smiles xx

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to all Santa walkers, Xmas card donations, fundraisers….. all of your money has helped Keepthebeat to provide these- you are all amazing! 💙❤️xx

We always feel so lucky to be able to do the grotto on the ward- thanks to all fundraisers and donations!
Santa walkers
Santa walk donators
Santa Marshall’s
Christmas card donators
The Hinckley and Burbage Lions Club fundraiser

Annita and lesley( playworker, who we cannot thank enough for continued support ) spent Saturday adding some magic to the teenage room-I think we can safely say it’s now a grotto!

The grotto has already been enjoyed by some very happy patients! 💙❤️

Our first year back saw 100 Santa’s walking 3 miles around the village of Burbage.
Lots of smiles along the way, even in the pouring rain! We had a lovely sing song at Moat House Care Home Burbage- thanks Cathy for organising xx

Lots of amazing Marshall’s helped the walk to go very smoothly- mince stop and choc stop at Em and Sam’s house!
Huge thanks to The Sycamores Inn – Burbage and The Anchor Inn Burbage for accommodating us!
The food hamper at the anchor was won by Linda WhiteHouse xx
The day raised a huge £3,000 which will all be going towards the Christmas grotto and the Christmas Day hampers- so everyone who attended the walk or donated to the event will have made such a big difference already to the families affected by CHD!
Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts xx
Photos will follow…

Any Santas who took part please send us your photos xx 🤶💙❤️🎅🏼
