It’s lovely
when friends come to visit and yesterday Jo and Peter Reid, last here in 2011 ,
spent a day at the Happy House.
And again, Jo and
Peter, who live in Lytham, Lancashire brought so many useful items, donated by friends
and Jo’s colleagues at Spire Fylde Coast Hospital, where she is a
theatre sister.
Two full
cases revealed so many things, including beautiful clothes, school socks, exercise
books, pencils, toiletries, medicine, sanitary pads, plus a football and a
rugby ball!
When Jo knew
she was up to their baggage limit and friends still wanted to help she asked for
donations and brought £55 towards our weekly shopping bill.
As soon as they pulled up back at the Happy House there were a lots of little ones, just home from school, eager to help unload the car when they came back with rice, washing
Our kids
love it when our friends
Peter and Jo were amazed and delighted to see all the changes they have read about on the
blog for themselves and inspired by Mama’s vision and drive that has made the
Happy House such a unique and special place. They are looking forward to taking home news of all the kids they met in 2011 to their own sons Jacob and Maxwell.
Thank you Jo
and Peter and thanks also to all your friends who donated money and goods for being so
generous and for caring.
We look
forward to seeing Jo and Peter again before they go back home to Lancashire.
