Diamond night for Lily-May

The Diamond Divas night at Maltby Miners’ Welfare on Friday in aid of Lily-May Earp, whose family want to buy her a specially-adapted bed.

The event wll feature entertainment from Diamond Divas and pop trio S61.

Lily-May is currently sleeping in a baby cot in her Maltby home to keep her as safe as possible but has outgrown it as part of her condition means she is tall for her age.

A single bed is unsuitable as she has no awareness of danger and is at risk of rolling out.

As well as a heart defect, Lily-May has learning difficulties, a curved spine, is unable to speak and is prone to chest infections and reflux.

A specialist cot-bed which would meet all Lily-May's needs costs £6,536.
