Hello my name is Alfie Jack Walmsley
Thank you for visiting my page
The above photograph is me and was taken on St Georges Day just before I was diagnosed with a Brain tumour in May.I have had 7 operations and chemotherapy since then and I think I have been very brave and courageous throughout.
I have lots of family and friends that come and visit me at Queen’s medical centre in Nottingham including my Dad Roger, my twin Sister Daisy. My mum Katrina looks after me at the hospital and keeps me company.
Lots of people know my granddad Maurice Walmsley and they have all tried to get him to shave his head before but to know avail. Now me of course being the loving grandson I am have won , so now I am asking every body to please sponsor my granddad’s head shave and raise money for CHILDREN’S BRAIN TUMOUR RESEARCH at queen’s medical centre,Nottingham. This will help other children just like me
The head shave will take place on the 13th September 2008 at 8pm.
The venue is the Rose and Crown public house on Main Street in Balderton i really hope you can all sponsor my Granddad, it is for a very good cause Thank you Alfie
