    Heart Kids Canterbury has been busier than ever this year - especially during the lockdown. We were inundated with queries and calls from families needing support. There were so many changing instructions for children waiting or having surgeries our team were getting daily updates from the hospitals and keeping our families connected. It has been hard for families when they could only have one person there so we are thrilled they can now have family together at the hospital. We had to cancel our events so have really struggled financially to keep up the support but kind hearted donors have meant we can still keep on making sure no family has to go through this alone. Hopefully now we are in level one we only take steps forward and not backwards

    We are excited to now be known as Heart Kids Canterbury - a name change so people understand more quickly what we do. Our national office has changed it's name from @Heart to Heart Kids NZ so we have changed too. But we are the same @Heart and still keep on providing awesome services to heart kids. Thank you to all the wonderful people who keep supporting us.

    Happy New Year to all our heart kids, families and supporters - I hope 2014 is a great year for you all. The City2Surf is on Sunday 23 March 2014 and we are thrilled to have runners in it this year. If you want to go in the 6k or 14 k events and raise funds for heart kids in Canterbury set up a page under Champions and send this to all your friends to sponsor you. Contact Judith if you have any problems or queries. Or if you are like me and prefer to sponsor than do the hard graft - go to one of the Champion pages and sponsor them! The staff and parents of the Estuary Road preschool are already off the mark and doing the City2Surf in memory of Chloe - go Team Happy Feet!

    Yay. We now have a way wonderful people can help heart children going to hospital. Our GiveaLittle page was created on 17 April 2013 as so many people were asking us for an easy way for them to help. So here it is. And already a success. Fantastic. Thank you to everyone who has a heart to help these small hearts.
