"They've all worked so hard over the past few weeks screenwriting, producing and acting, of course, and have created some brilliant short films. It's fantastic that we can give them a true red carpet experience."The charity's CEO, Sharon Morrow, commented that a core part of the team's activity is creating engaging memory making activities for the children and their families.
"At LauraLynn we have a wide variety of support programmes that help not just the child but also the entire family and siblings are important part of that. To grow up in a family with a child that has a life-limiting condition can be a challenge, not just for the child but also for the parents. What we try and do is to bring siblings together and give them chance to meet with other children in similar situations. It’s important that they have the chance to just be children and this support can have massive positive impacts on the entire family.”[caption id="attachment_264388" align="aligncenter" width="3648"]
