Firstly welcome to the blog! I don't usually get much time to sit and write but somehow found 5 minutes today. <\/p>
I wanted to introduce our 2020 Christmas appeal. Each year we are going to launch a Christmas themed design for sale throughout November and December. For each jumper sold, we will donate \u00a32 and \u00a31 for each t-shirt sold with the festive design. <\/p>
We have chosen to support a charity close to our hearts. The Cots for Tots appeal started in 2010 to support the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit in Bristol. It not only supports with life-saving equipment for very poorly babies but it also helps support families with comforts and accommodation at such a precious moment in life. <\/p>
Back in 2018 myself and my husband found out we were expecting and couldn't be more excited! Everything moved along as it should until we had our 20-week scan. Because the midwife could not see all of our baby's heart we were referred to a specialist hospital for more scans, after several hours and many scans later it was confirmed that our baby's heart was in a 'cris-cross' shape, fortunately for us our little girl's heart is connected properly despite this but it made us realize how truly fortunate we are and how much worse it could have been. Since the arrival of our little girl we have been fundraising for Cots for Tots as a thank you and to support those not as fortunate as us to have a healthy and happy (now) toddler.<\/p>","urlTitle":"our-2020-fundraiser","url":"\/blog\/our-2020-fundraiser\/","editListUrl":"\/my-blogs","editUrl":"\/my-blogs\/edit\/our-2020-fundraiser\/","fullUrl":"https:\/\/roobear.uk\/blog\/our-2020-fundraiser\/","featured":false,"published":true,"showOnSitemap":true,"hidden":false,"visibility":null,"createdAt":1605452515,"updatedAt":1605453614,"publishedAt":1605453614,"lastReadAt":null,"division":{"id":91718,"name":"Roobear"},"tags":[],"metaImage":{"original":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/leooieduxgqlpelptncpfiivhtahopsi07czmmj8z28obtmh.jpeg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/leooieduxgqlpelptncpfiivhtahopsi07czmmj8z28obtmh.jpeg.jpg?w=1140&h=855","banner":"https:\/\/images.podos.io\/leooieduxgqlpelptncpfiivhtahopsi07czmmj8z28obtmh.jpeg.jpg?w=1920&h=1440"},"metaTitle":null,"metaDescription":null,"keyPhraseCampaignId":null,"series":[],"similarReads":[{"id":21484,"title":"It's time for a change","url":"\/blog\/its-time-for-a-change\/","urlTitle":"its-time-for-a-change","division":91718,"description":"It\u2019s been over 2 years since I started Tee-Rex and I was starting to hit designers block.
