Join us during Community Week as we come together to support the Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Appeal, the charity that helps families during their stay at Bristol Children’s Hospital.
The appeal holds a special place in our hearts, as it has supported local nine-year-old Barney and his family throughout his treatment for a brain tumour at Bristol Children’s Hospital.
Barney’s Story
Barney should be spending his days at school, playing football and enjoying time with his friends. Instead, he is currently undergoing treatment for a brain tumour and faces a long journey ahead. Following treatment at Great Ormond Street Hospital, Barney is now receiving ongoing care at Bristol Children’s Hospital.
Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Appeal supports families like Barney’s during incredibly difficult times, helping to provide comfort and practical support while children receive treatment.
Earlier this year, our very own Karyn and the team at The Lion Inn helped organise Barney’s Funday, which, thanks to incredible community support, raised an amazing £8,080 for Barney and his family.
