Little Annie Raises Smiles In Children’s Unit

Little Annie raises smiles for children and staff at the Ulster Hospital Children’s Unit and Emergency Department 

Annie Fusco, who was born with Down’s Syndrome in 2024, has raised an incredible £3,000 through her heart-warming “25 Festive Outfits” fundraiser.

Each day in the run-up to Christmas last year, Annie delighted family, friends and supporters by wearing a different Christmas-themed outfit, spreading smiles both in person and online.

With the funds she raised, Annie donated a television, and play and charging equipment to the Children’s Unit and Emergency Department at the Ulster Hospital along with some treats for the staff.

South Eastern Trust Hospital Play Specialist, Sharon Millar, expressed her thanks for the very kind donation and said: “Annie’s donation is just amazing.

“The television and play equipment will make a real difference to the children who are in hospital, helping to keep them entertained and distracted from their treatment.

“The treats for our staff were such a thoughtful touch too… it means a lot to us all.”
