Olivia’s father, Josh Stanbury said: “When Olivia heard that it was 25 years since Children’s Hospice South West was founded, she wanted to do something to support its work and the idea of a static cycle was born.”
The hospice was founded in 1991 by Eddie Farwell and his late wife Jill following their own experiences of caring for two life-limited children.
The charity now has three hospices – in Devon, Cornwall and Somerset – caring for over 450 children and their families.
