Today, after several weeks of hard work in School, Eliza's group have won the First Give charity presentation! They put together an informative presentation about CF, and made it through to the finals (7 groups out of around 50 groups!) As finalists they had to host a fundraiser, so they held a bake sale in school yesterday, raising £101.28... today Eliza and Esmé presented the final updated presentation to an audience of 150 teenagers, and 6 judges, and won, getting an additional £1000 donation from First Give to the CF Trust! We're all so proud of her, and she did it in honour of you, Jack. You mean so much to her. Never forgotten.

Dear Jack
I Love You the way you are,
Even when all is lost,
You still shine like a star,
My Brave Cousin Jack.
You always fought back,
Even if it was hard,
When you were sick you'd attack,
My Super Cousin Jack.
Love from Eliza

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
