AN EVESHAM fund-raising family hit a record amount of money for a hospital where their daughter is being treated for a life limiting heart condition.
Bryan and Mandy Edwards of Badsey Lane raised a record £540 from plant, vegetable and jam sales this year in aid of Birmingham Children’s Hospital.
Mandy said: “We are so thankful to the general public for once again supporting us with our pop up shops in Badsey Lane and Childswickham. Bryan had a record 580 plants growing in his small greenhouse this year. I’m going to have to watch next year or he’ll be taking over my windowsills too!”
Mandy will host her eighth annual Christmas Craft Fair at Leedons Park Childswickham on Saturday, November 17 in aid of the hospital.
Last year, the event raised over £1530 which meant that Mandy donated £2,600 to the hospital.
“My daughter, Bethan, 14, has a rare life-limiting heart condition called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome which means that she only has half a heart. The hospital provides on-going care for Beth.
