Grace’s family are trying to raise money to pay for operations that could help the brave youngster walk without relying on her frame and wheelchair.

Her diagnosis means she has trouble with balance and mobility, and also has autism and other connected conditions.

Now a Christmas raffle has been organised to help the campaign.

Prizes include £100, theatre tickets, restaurant vouchers and a bottle of champagne. Tickets cost £1 each, and are available from the Wonky Donkey pub in Fletton, or by scanning the poster.

Businesses are still encouraged to donate prizes for the raffle – for more information or to donate to the campaign, visit https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/gogracego
