"MEGAN'S FLUTTERBY FUND"

MEGAN'S FLUTTERBY FUND

WELCOME " MEGAN'S FLUTTERBY FUND" SITE has been set up in memory of Megan Bell who died aged 13 years of a life limiting condition. Megan was profoundly disabled and during her lifetime we had to fund raise to obtain lots of specialized equipment and other things such as switches to activate toys and computer. The purchase of musical instruments ,which the children find so exciting and stimulating. Bean bags, mats, lights, mirrors the list is endless. A lot of this equipment to enrich her life was not supplied by the Health Service as they do not fund for lots of these things. We too had help from our local community, friends and wonderful people who helped us do this .

We now have set out to help other families with children like Megan in her memory to have these things through her Fund. Our aim is to raise funds to help special needs and life limited condition children in our local community to be able to have as many of these things that we are able to help towards or purchase for.

Being specialized equipment can cost from as little as £30 for a switch to hundreds of pounds depending on the child's ability, but can make such a difference to the child's everyday quality of life and the joy and achievement it can bring by being independent for those short moments . Fibre Optic lights and musical instruments such as an ocean drum again bring such enjoyment but cost around a £1000 for lights and £80+ for the drum.

We hope you like our Blog and please feel free to post your comments and Thank you for taking the time to look .

Hi Everyone ,

Lots of things happened since our last posts we have fulfilled another 2 requests but unfortunately we have no pictures but are very sure that the children are happy with the items one of which was a very much needed large swing/bouncer for a little boy of 9 months.

Our also wonderful news is that Anna married Spencer Lyman on September 5th and I know some of you that read the blogs attended it was a lovely day and we all wish Anna and Spencer many years of happiness together.

We did organise a Craft Fayre in July and raised £180.

On another note we have a size 2 Lecky Standing frame that has now been out grown and still in great condition if anyone is in need of one at home please let us know subject to a Physio or OT approval it is ok for your child . Pictures posted below.
