Sienna is an amazing little girl who shows resilience and bravery beyond her young years. Sienna has character in abundance and captures the hearts everyone she meets with her loving, playful and cheeky character.
Sienna suffered a cardiac arrest at the tender age of just fourteen months old, her life saved by her Godmother who performed life saving CPR. Sienna suffered a severe seizure post cardiac arrest yet came back fighting, strong and resilient as ever!
As mentioned, Sienna has several heart conditions, one of which is SVT and can cause Sienna’s heart to beat extremely fast and erratic – which in the past has reached over 300 beats per minute and required her heart to be stopped and restarted seven times!
Sienna’s a very unique and special little girl who has captured the attention of many organisations, including the British Heart Foundation who awarded Sienna the ‘Young Heart Hero of The Year Award’ - an amazing achievement for somebody so young! In addition, Sienna has been at the heart of many BHF projects since her diagnosis, including:
- Supporting the BHF & Omaze fundraising campaign whereby Sienna’s story was used and helped to raise over £2million for BHF.
- Sienna supported the BHF on their most recent ‘This is Science’ campaign, championing research into incurable and in inherited heart conditions.
- Sienna’s story has been shared on the radio, podcast, BHF stores, post appeals...the list is endless – above are just a snippet of highlights!
Though times have been very difficult, as a family we have dedicated time and effort to fundraising – raising £75,000 for the Royal Brompton Hospital who cares for Sienna and her family, and helping BHF to raise £2million as part of the Omaze fundraising campaign.
When Sienna isn’t fundraising, she enjoys nothing more than smashing life and all her milestones! Despite having an ICD and pacemaker she continues to succeed in all she applies herself to – tennis, swimming, football, running, making friends....Sienna is truly a remarkable and amazing little girl who has an incredible zest for life!
