The former Emmerdale star is part of a new stage production touring the UK
Samantha Giles has urged people thinking of forming their own lottery syndicate to support one that "can make a big difference" for a cause close to her heart.
She said: "We’ve all dreamed about winning the lottery and the Claire House lottery is a fun way that people can support seriously ill children. It’s not just about winning, it’s also about raising money and helping people, which is key.” "She did get a heart transplant, but very sadly she died just over a year ago, a few weeks before her 18th birthday. I can’t imagine what my friend, and other parents who lose children must go through. Nobody should lose their child. Families need every bit of support, as do the children who are dealing with different health conditions."
