It was a huge night recently when Dora the Explorer visited Radio Lollipop at the Mater Childrens Hospital in Brisbane. Dora is a regular visitor to both the Mater Childrens and more recently the Gold Coast Hospital courtesy of our friends at Dreamworld on the Gold Coast.
Dora made an extra special trip in to the Mater this time to help make the wish come true for one of Radio Lollipops biggest fans, Jacinta. Jacinta has been in hospital for the last 10 weeks and recently celebrated her 5th birthday in hospital. Unfortunately, Dora couldnt visit for Jacintas birthday but she did make it for a special visit and they spent time playing a board game which Jacinta won and they had lots of photos together to help Jacinta remember her very own visit. Jacinta then escorted Dora down to the Radio Lollipop playroom where lots of other Dora fans were waiting.
It was a fantastic night, with lots of children getting to meet Dora and have their photo taken.
A special thank you to Dreamworld and Renee Dempsey (Mater Honorary Press and PR Co-ordinator) for arranging both the Mater and Gold Coast visits enabling us to brighten the lives of sick children in hospital.
