In April, representative from the Foundation Gabriel Cusato met with Charlotte Fairall (Founder and CEO), Gemma Mason (Family Suppport Worker), and Phil Wormley (Fundraising Consultant) from Sophie's Legacy.

Sophie’s Legacy is a charity founded in memory of Sophie Fairall, dedicated to improving the experience of children in hospital and supporting their families during incredibly difficult times. The charity works closely with NHS staff to identify practical needs and provide compassionate, tangible to families when they need it most, easing the burden on those facing unexpected or prolonged hospital stays.

With our support, 42 of Sophie’s Snack Boxes will be delivered to Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth. Assembled by volunteers at the charity’s Fareham office, these large crates are filled with essential snacks, drinks, and toiletries. Over a six-week period, 5–7 boxes will be delivered each week, with stock levels replenished based on demand.

Distributed by hospital staff across children’s wards, the snack boxes ensure that families particularly those arriving suddenly or with limited resources can access basic comforts without needing to leave their child’s bedside.
