Support and Dreamdrops.

Dreamdrops appeals aim to raise money to
make a real difference to children and families who use hospital or
specialist children's health facilities in Huntingdonshire.
Money raised will support the extras that are not covered by public
funds but which make needing to use health services more tolerable for
children and their families. The Mayor has chose to specifically
support Hinchingbrooke Hospital Holly Ward. For more information
