Riziah
Nine year old Riziah was named after the word ‘resilient’ when she was just a little bump in her mum’s tummy, and this is why… Riziah was born with a rare condition called Heterotaxy Syndrome, which causes internal organs to be abnormally arranged inside the body.
Oscar
In October 2024, Oscar, aged 6, was involved in a quad bike accident while with his family near his home in Penyfford, North Wales. As a result of the accident, Oscar was taken to The Countess of Chester Hospital before being blue-lighted to Alder Hey in Liverpool.
Lillie
When Lillie’s mum was just nine weeks pregnant, she and her family were informed that their unborn baby had gastroschisis. In January 2025, 37 weeks into her pregnancy, Ainsley gave birth to Lillie, who weighed 4lb 8oz. Straight after her birth, Lillie was blue-lighted to Alder Hey and, at just two hours old, underwent her first surgery.
Mia
Mia has a condition called Microtia and has had hearing loss in her right ear since she was born. Microtia is a congenital condition in which the external part of the ear is underdeveloped, malformed, or missing. Mia has recently had a Sentio implant, which is state-of-the-art hearing technology designed to restore or enhance hearing.
