This week, 52 Lives is trying to help a 2 month old baby girl get to hospital safely. We heard about this little girl from one of the medical professionals who is working with her. 

When she was just a few weeks old, she was diagnosed with neuroblastomas on the brain - it is a type of cancer that affects young children.

She is undergoing chemotherapy at the moment, has a line going straight into her arteries for the treatment and has to be tube fed.

Her mum takes her to Great Ormond Street Hospital in London for regular treatment - a journey which cannot be made by public transport as the baby girl has a low white blood cell count which makes her susceptible to infection.

This is where all of you good people come in!

This baby's mum is an amazing woman - positive, caring and incredibly strong. But she has very little money. She is having to make the regular journey to the hospital by taxi  - something she simply cannot afford to do. But, with her daughter's life at stake, she can't afford not to.

52 Lives wants to raise funds to pay for the taxi journeys to the hospital. With the money we raise, we will open a taxi account for the mum with (hopefully) a substantial amount of credit - enough so she doesn't have to worry about it for a while.

The mum is a truly lovely woman who has not asked for any help - in fact, she said 'I'm sure there are needier people than me'. But we want to help her and I hope some of you do as well.

We would be grateful for any support you can give. If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch with us.

UPDATE - The brilliant team at Green Tomato Cars - London's leading green taxi company, has offered to match any donations we receive (up to 500 pounds). So any money you donate will automatically be doubled!
