Guiseley and District Lions help appeal for Menston girl Charlotte Wormald

A fund to buy vital equipment to help a little girl on the road to her first step has been given a boost.
Six-year-old Charlotte Wormald was left with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy following complications after she was born prematurely.
The youngster, from Menston, is unable to sit, stand and walk unaided and needs daily physiotherapy. Her family are trying to raise £4,200 to buy a Motomed Gracile machine to lesson the spasticity in her arms and legs and to help strengthen them, and now Guiseley and District Lions have donated £500 towards the cost of the machine.
