One of our pupils, just 8 years old, was diagnosed in January with a rare form of cancer that affects both the spine and brain. In February, a tumour was removed from the spine, followed by proton beam therapy in Manchester. The child is now waiting for further tests. Despite everything, they are wonderfully chatty and absolutely love reading and listening to stories. Their spirit is nothing short of inspiring. Please give what you can. Every penny raised will go directly towards helping these amazing children and their families with the practical and emotional support they need right now.
