Charity help ‘invaluable’ after daughter’s open heart surgery, say parents

In the last year, CHAS supported over 400 babies and children.

The parents of a six-year-old girl born with only half a heart say every single day spent with her is a blessing.

Leah Barclay is one of the only two children in the UK with the extremely rare condition, and she’s the only one in Scotland.

After undergoing her third and final open-heart surgery two years ago, Leah’s family say the support they’ve had from the charity, Children’s Hospices Across Scotland, has been invaluable.
