Charity Week: Little Hearts Matter

Little Hearts Matter needs your help to celebrate the amazing children who go through open-heart surgery at just a few days old and will need several more complicated operations as they get older. Born with half a heart, their amazing surgeons literally hand make a working heart for them. So that they can continue to support them and their families, Little Hearts Matter is asking you to make, bake, knit and sell your own ‘Handmade Hearts’ – the only limit is your imagination! Sell your knitted goodies at a craft fair, have a cake sale at work or challenge your friends to a bake-off, you will play a huge part in raising the essential funds needed to run their support line, produce essential health and lifestyle information to help families navigate the unique challenges of life with half a heart. Find inspiration here and download your fundraising pack.
