Baby Amelia’s new life-changing helmet
Amelia Goff is just seven-months’old and suffers from severe brachycephaly - also known as flat-head syndrome.
Now, after a huge helping hand from the Tree of Hope children’s charity, baby Amelia has received the expensive treatment that her family otherwise wouldn’t have been able to afford.

“She’s been a bit grumpy and a little upset with it but she’s getting better,” said mother Elise Edwards, from Meldrum Drive.
“Amelia is handling it really well as it will take some time to adjust to.”
She continued: “It was awful to see her upset, but when we look at what it will mean in the long-run, we know we’ve done the right thing, and we just feel lucky that she’s been given this life-changing chance.”

“To help all those other children out there who can’t be as lucky as she is -please come forward with whatever you can give.”
