My name is Aby and I live in Aberdeenshire with my husband, 3 kids and 2 cats.  I first became aware of Buttony when my daughter received the first Buttony bear from the charity back in 2015 when she was 4. It was at this point I met Jenny (the charity founder) and we realised how similar our stories were. She was a huge support to me and I was honoured to be asked to be a trustee a few years later. I became a trustee of the charity because I am passionate about helping to support children and their families going through life changing surgery and would love to do something to reduce the stigma associated with bowel and bladder disorders.
