A MESSAGE
FROM OUR CEO
Hello and welcome to our annual Danni’s Diary
newsletter.
We hope you enjoy this snapshot into life at your
local children’s hospice, and seeing some of the
wonderful things your donations have paid for.
It’s fair to say this year has been a rollercoaster!
Starting the year in lockdown was tough for everyone,
but I’m proud to say that we’ve managed be here for
our children, young people and their families no
matter what – continuing respite at the hospice and supporting families in many
other ways. COVID has changed the world, and here at Derian it’s helped us to
innovate. We’ve come up with new ways of fundraising and have organised our
services to make sure they are as accessible as possible to everyone.
One popular change has been to open up the hospice for more day care. After
months of shielding, a trip to the cinema, sensory room, pool or playground at
Derian House for the day was a lifeline for many families.
This year, we have carried out our biggest-ever listening exercise, asking our families
what they needed most, in order to set our strategy for the future. See page 6 for
what they told us.
We’ve also doubled our Derian on Holiday provision, building two amazing new
holiday lodges in the Lakes, due to open in Autumn 2021. Check them out on
page 11.
To pay for all these new services we’ve had to work hard. We’ve not only opened two
new charity shops in Preston and Blackburn (see page 16) but we’ve also launched a
competition the likes of which we’ve never seen before!
Read all about the Great Big House Giveaway on page 23.
As we continue to navigate life after lockdown,
whatever is thrown at us, one thing remains.
We are committed to being the leading provider of
children’s palliative and end-of-life care in the
UK.
With your help, we will always strive to make
sure the life of every child matters.

Little Zed’s journey home
Baby Muhammad-Zareb – or “Little Zed” as his
parents call him - was born during the February
2021 lockdown with a rare disorder that meant
part of his brain was missing.
Parents Zahid and Rehana, from Blackburn, had
prepared themselves for an uncertain future
having been warned about their baby boy’s
condition at the 20-week scan.
But at just 48 hours old, Little Zed stopped breathing
and was rushed into intensive care, leaving them
devastated.
Doctors said baby Zed was unlikely to ever leave hospital
or breathe on his own. COVID restrictions on visiting meant
he had never been allowed to meet big sister Hina, aged two.
But against the odds, Little Zed kept fighting and eventually began
to breathe independently. After a successful operation on his stomach
to improve feeding, the family were told they could take their precious boy
home.
Fearful about the huge responsibility of caring for a seriously ill baby whilst also
looking after their toddler daughter, Zahid and Rehana turned to Derian House
Children’s Hospice for support.
For the first time since our
baby was born we’ve had
the opportunity to
live like a family.
The team is amazing,
they’ve taken so much
pressure off us and
I won’t forget this
experience for
the rest of my life.

The family came to the hospice and were
able to learn how to care for their baby
whilst having a safety net of support
when needed.
“It took so much pressure off us and
allowed us to get into a routine of
what time his feeds and meds were.
We could relax because we weren’t
thrown in the deep end,” said dad
Zahid.
Now home and settling into family
life, the family continue to be
supported by Derian staff and have
been back for a respite visit to rest
and make memories together.
They have enjoyed happy times
playing on the Smile Park playground
and a movie night at the hospice’s on-site
cinema.
Touched by the care they received, Zahid has even volunteered to become an
ambassador for the charity, and is planning to help spread awareness in
hard-to-reach communities using his multi-linguistic skills.
And Little Zed was the star of the show at the official opening of the new Derian
House new charity shop in Blackburn where dad Zed cut the ribbon to declare the
shop open to the public.
Although the future will have its challenges, one thing for certain is that Little Zed
and his family will make the most of every moment they have together.
“He is our first and
only son, our job as his
parents is to make sure
that he knows he is
loved for every second
of his life.”

Little Zed’s on our website www.derianhouse.co.uk. 5

Visitors also got chance to meet Shuna our Pets as Therapy dog, buy cuttings of plants
potted by our children and young people, and find out more about volunteering.

Greetings from our new lodges
We all know that holidays are an important part of creating happy memories that
last. Due to the high demand for stays at our two Ribby Hall lodges, this year we
built two more holiday lodges at South Lakeland Leisure Village,
near Carnforth. Our new lodges, like those at Ribby Hall,
are purpose-built and adapted for the needs of our
families to take a holiday together.

When most retail outlets were struggling with
the impending lockdown in December, Derian
decided to open a brand new store in Preston.
As our first city centre location, the new store
has taken on a cool new look with industrial
shelving and rustic wooden box displays.
As well as selling furniture and designer
clothing, the store has a music hub and a huge
collection of vinyl records.
The Fishergate store was officially opened by
one of our young adults, Leo, with a helping hand from our Patron Kiki Deville.
Derian House now has five shops across Lancashire, which can be found in Chorley, Horwich,

More than £12,000 was raised by Christmas-loving families from
across Lancashire last year – and we want to make it even bigger and
better this year! A total of 25 homes got involved in our 2020 Deck

drew crowds from across the region, who donated money for the
charity in return. Whole streets got involved, and we even made a

100 MILES IN 100 DAYS
Five year old Archie decided that he wanted to help
other young boys and girls. With help from his mum and
dad, he came up with the ambitious 100 miles in 100
days challenge.
Proud mum, Claire said: “Archie gets so excited when a
new sponsor comes through. He has smashed his original
target of £100”.
SNOWDON CHALLENGE
Brothers Elliot, and Christian, along with their friend Zac,
teamed up to conquer the legendery climb of Mount
Snowdon. Within just two days they smashed their
original £200 target!
Mum Nicola said: “The boys are thrilled by how much
they’ve managed to raise so far. They are very touched at
the generosity of people.”
ELF ARMY
An army of elves from across Lancashire jumped into
action selling plush gingerbread toys for us at Christmas.
One of the little helpers, Jess, has a special reason for
taking part. Mum, Jackie, told us: “Jess is on a mission to
sell all of her gingerbread toys in memory of her friend
Jacob, and to thank the lovely team at Derian House for
taking care of him and his parents this time last year.”
FUTURE BEST SELLER
Six-year-old Evie from Standish has written her very own

to rumble
A teenage music sensation from
Blackburn has been on a whirlwind tour
of the UK to raise money for the hospice
which cared for his brother.
Jacob Reddy, 16, from Blackburn, toured
every city in the UK busking to raise more
than £8,000 for Derian House.
Over 22 days Jacob travelled up and down
the country, starting at the charity’s Preston
charity shop. And he certainly caused a storm!
Highlights include a surprise visit from his
favourite YouTuber JaackMaate in Norwich and a
shout-out at the gig of his favourite musician Frank Turner from the O2 Apollo.
Jacob also received his GCSE results whilst on tour, and got the brilliant news that he
had gained a place at the prestigious music college BIMM Institute Manchester.
Jacob’s brother Joseph was cared for by Derian
House, and so the charity has a place in his heart.
Although Jacob never met his older brother, who
died in 2003 just before his third birthday, he
decided to mark what would have been his big
brother’s 21st birthday with a special fundraising
event.
Jacob said: “I took on this crazy nationwide busking
challenge to celebrate Joseph’s life and to say a
massive thanks to Derian.
“My main aim was to raise lots of money for the
charity as they have struggled financially due to
the pandemic but still continue to care for children
like my brother.”
