When Jovelyn visits Hope House she gets to be ‘her own little girl in her own little world’, says her mum, Gifty.

Jovelyn, who has a rare chromosome condition, and her family, have been cared for and supported by our teams since she was six-months-old.

“We love Hope House,” says Gifty. “Jovelyn’s favourite thing to do there is have her own space and time in the sensory room. She can spend so long just looking at all the lights and bubbles and really goes into her own little world.

Amazing Experiences

“We have also had some amazing moments as a family too, and Jovelyn is able to just live her little life. There was a special Halloween day, where Jovelyn got to play dress up, or the Disney day where she got to meet the characters.

“Our favourite was when Jovelyn and her brothers got to see all the special lights and meet Santa at the Winter Wonderland the staff had put together.

“It was really special and felt like something normal we could do as a family. I will remember that day forever.”
