Twins 1st birthday party raises money for SCBU

The owner of The Riverside Restaurant in Braunton, Dave Charlesworth and his partner Sara organised a birthday party for their one year old twin daughters Daisy Lou and Evie.  Instead of receiving gifts, guests were asked to donate money towards the Special Care Baby Unit Appeal.

Dave said “Evie and Daisy were born on 28 May 2015 and spent 3 weeks in North Devon District Hospital’s Special Care Baby Unit, and we wanted to celebrate their first year by supporting other babies that need care too.”

The party raised a fantastic £380.96 which will be put towards the purchase of a new ventilator to help newborn babies who have difficulty breathing.
