Phoebe, 10 and Hermonie, 7, live across the road from the new Nightingale hospital in Harrogate. After watching all the work over the last three weeks and joining in on the weekly clap for our carers, they decided they wanted to do something in return.
The Smith sisters came up with the idea of designing t-shirts to help raise money for charity. They have called their venture KidSmith and all money raised will go to HELP Harrogate.
"Our designs are to celebrate how the community has come together to help those in need and we hope they will be a reminder of some of the good things that happened during this really hard time. We chose HELP Harrogate to try and help them continue to support older and vulnerable members of the local community during the Covid 19 crisis."
Mum, Phillipa Smith told the Stray Ferret that she is very proud of the girls willingness and desire to try and help:
"It's so lovely to see how excited they are when orders come in for something they have designed themselves. We're all really pleased to support HELP Harrogate, they are a fantastic local charity on the ground every day helping our community at this awful time."
