Nor a thorn nor a threat stain her beauty bright"

A poorly seven year little girl with a brain tumour was obviously a tug at our heart strings. Every trip into the town she has to go into the Silvercross pram shop to see her favourite red polka dot dolls pram. Her family wanted to get her it as an early Christmas present as she will be having grueling chemotherapy over the Christmas period. We said that it would be our treat but very generously when arranging the purchase, the Silvercross shop in conjunction with Silvercross Heritage, kindly offered to donate it. A big thank you to them.
