Fred Foundation

A family supported by The Fred Foundation  have taken on Lambeth  at a Special Educational needs tribunal and WON!

Great news for the worn out family but  how sad they had to go that far to get their child’s needs met.

The year before last Fred’s Mum was aware that he wasn’t sleeping well and seemed to be in pain. Watching him carefully she could see it was something to do with his feet. A visit to the shoe shop confirmed that his shoes were the right size. What was the problem?  Unable to guess what it was she took him to the doctor. He said that poor Fred had the worst case of chilblains he had ever seen – almost frostbite. Every Time his feet warmed up he was in agony. He had not been able to tell his Mum that he was cold in his wellies when he was outside, despite warm socks and clothes.

That year The Celtic Sheepskin company came to Fred’s rescue and sent him a free pair of cosy sheepskin waterproof boots. Well Fred is a growing like every other little boy and has finally outgrown the boots. His mother was dreading this very cold weather was going to give him chilblains again, but The Celtic Sheepskin company have again come to the rescue and sent Fred another pair of cosy boots.

The Celtic Sheepskin company is a British firm based in Cornwall. Please take every opportunity to tell everyone you know about how kind they have been, and buy your boots from them!
