The charity, dedicates itself to under-fives with serious or terminal illnesses.It was previously at risk of closing at year's end but has thankfully received sufficient donations from companies and individuals to keep its doors open.Joining Michelle was Amanda and her daughter Esme, who have both benefited from the charity's support.
