We are thrilled to announce that Convey Law has reached a major fundraising milestone, over £50,000 raised in support of Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). It’s been an inspiring journey of commitment, compassion, and community.
This January, we kicked off the New Year with a mission: Jumping into January to raise funds for Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH)! We asked staff to commit to 30 minutes of daily activity, whether it’s walking the dog, doing the school run on foot instead of driving, or skipping the delivery and picking it up yourself.
Our Charity Champion for January and GOSH is Rhian Reynolds.
GOSH is a charity held closely to Rhian’s heart, read below for Rea’s journey
Rea’s Journey
In August 2016, Rhian’s stepdaughter Rea, was born with a condition called TOF/OA (tracheo-oesophageal fistula and oesophageal atresia), which meant that when she was born, her stomach wasn’t attached to her oesophagus which prevented her from being able to swallow. They were told very early on that she would require multiple surgeries to fix this issue, and that Cardiff hospital would not be able to perform these surgeries as they were too complex. They were told that at some point, Rea would have to go to London to have these surgeries in Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Rea remained in Cardiff NICU for 6 months as she was too small to be able to have the surgeries but then in March 2017 she was transferred to GOSH to start having the surgeries and procedures she needed.
What was meant to only be a 2 week stay for the surgery and then a transfer back to Cardiff NICU for recovery ended up being nearly 2 months in GOSH due to the complexities of the surgery Rea ultimately ended up requiring and the care she needed that only GOSH could provide.
GOSH provided the best medical team for her surgery and aftercare which made her stay that little bit easier. For Rhian’s family it was a terrifying time, but the world class surgeons and doctors and caring nurses helped alleviate some of that worry and fear.
GOSH not only has amazing staff but the facilities also assist families who are trying to live a normal family life in an abnormal situation.
Every 24 hours at GOSH…
750 children arrive at the hospital
72 new patients are seen at the hospital who have never been treated there before
336 operations are performed
100 seriously ill children and young people are admitted for life changing treatment and care
Thank You
A huge thank you to everyone who took part in this cause. Because of you, Great Ormond Street Hospital will have stronger resources and more hope for the future.
What’s Next
This isn’t the end — we want to build on this success. We’ll continue supporting GOSH in January 2026 with new fundraising goals.
