Earlier this month Ben Allan, an engineer at our charity partner Barratt and David Wilson Homes, undertook the phenomenal challenge of Mount Everest base camp to raise money for Little Miracles.
In this article, the BBC reports on Ben's 12-day trek and what it means to him to be able to raise money to help local families of children with additional needs, disabilities and life-limiting conditions.
Fundraising events like Ben’s allow us to continue to be here for families, many of whom struggle both financially and emotionally to access the support they need in the community.
An enormous thank you to Ben, we simply couldn't be the charity we are without incredible supporters like him.
