Serious Sunday


Once upon a time there was a little boy in Ireland who got sick. His mummy tried her best to make him better but when she couldn't she got very scared and so, in the middle of the night, she bundled him into her car and drove him for one hour to get to the nearest hospital. The doctors looked after the little boy until he got better, and they all lived happily ever after. The End.

Once upon a time there was a little boy in Africa who got sick. His mummy tried her best to make him better but when she couldn't she got very scared and so, in the middle of the night, she bundled him into her arms and walked for three days to get to the nearest doctor. She didn't make it and the little boy died. The End.

Shocking isn't it? And yet this is happening on a massive scale this very minute.

Is this acceptable?

No.

Is this preventable?

Yes.

Do you want to help?

Then take 30 seconds to Sign the petition that will be given to David Cameron this week at the UN General Assembly in New York.
Save the Children and Christine Mosler of Thinly Spread will be there to ensure our voices are heard.

It worked before, it can work again.
