Charlotte's Journey to Recovery

Donation protected
Shortly after giving birth to her eagerly awaited twin boys, Fox and Teddy, Charlotte suffered from a massive stroke. Further complications led to a blood clot on her brain, followed by two brain bleeds. Against all odds, Charlotte survived and has spent the last eight months in hospital. Charlotte is soon to return to her family and so we are trying to raise as much money as possible to help her transition back into home life and continued rehabilitation. She has been left with right sided paralysis and brain damage.

The money raised will be spent on whatever is needed to help Charlotte's rehabilitation and support her young family. The equipment and support she'll receive through the NHS, local authority and disability allowance will be limited and her husband Rob has had to put work on hold since the stroke to be by her side. Any funds raised to help with their daily living expenses will be a huge help. The funds raised will also contribute towards buying better devices to improve Charlotte's mobility, for example a higher-tech wheelchair to enable greater independence, or even a robotic arm. To add to their challenge, Charlotte and Rob had only just moved into their new home just before the stroke and it is in need of further renovation and decorating so the funds could also go towards making their home more suitable and accessible.

Once Charlotte has returned home in September and her rehabilitation programme continues from there, she will know more about what will be needed to improve her quality of life. We are keen to start this fund now so that there is money readily available as and when needed.

Charlotte is in the early stages of rehabilitation but we will regularly update you on her progress and show you how your support is making a huge difference to her life.

Charlotte is determined, she is brave and she will continue to push herself to regain as much independence as possible and make the best life for herself, Rob and their adorable sons Fox and Teddy.
