Emily Maitlis writes to UK newspapers about our website

December 16, 2011

Well known TV news journalist and WellChild Celebrity Ambassador Emily Maitlis has written to newspapers throughout the UK to tell them about the new Medicines for Children website.

Emily writes: “I, like all your readers who are parents, have experienced the fear that comes when your child is ill, particularly when you have to give them medicine, often without enough information about what to do and how it will affect your child.”

Describing the leaflets, she writes, “Parents have already told us how helpful this information is as it can often be stressful enough for them when their child is ill, without the added anxiety of ploughing through complicated information and worrying about the risks of not giving a medicine correctly.”
