The end of 2007 completes our first decade for Anthony Davies. We intend to mark the event by launching a charity year for 2008.

Our chosen charity for the year will be the Chain Of Hope. The charity was set up by Sir Magdi Yacoub and is dedicated to giving children from less fortunate countries access to life saving heart surgery.

My eldest daughter Chloe had open heart surgery to save her life at 11 months old, nearly ten years ago. She was operated on by Sir Magdi on May 1st 1998, nearly ten years ago at Harefield hospital.

We are hoping to raise a substantial amount throughout the year through various fundraising events including a parachute jump for Ben, Enzo and Marc and culminating with a charity event later in the year.

We also hope to make an annual charity project after 2008 and are looking at LOCAL projects and charities for 2009. If you want to talk to us about a local project for 2009 please e mail me at richard@anthonydavies24.co.uk.
