Mum, Tina Rooney says: “I love the fact that Sophie was welcomed from day one with open arms and was never treated any differently, although I always know her needs are being met. I never feel like the staff find this a bind and have accepted Sophie into the Razz Family. I will be eternally grateful to all the staff for giving Sophie the confidence to grow into the little star we all know and love. A massive thanks must be given to Rebecca for her patience and understanding all these years and never giving up on Sophie.”
