My story

Hi Dudes,

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. I hope to raise as much money as I can.

I live in Redditch and I am 12 years old. I am a BAGGIES fan! BOING BOING!! I am in Year 8 at school. I have a brain tumour and am being treated at Birmingham Children's Hospital.

Mum and Joy are going to take part in The Stair Rush challenge at The Cube in Birmingham in March - 18 floors - 374 stairs to run up! OMG - they will be dressed as superheroes too! Please spnnsor them :0)

How COOL - EIC, Redditch have just raise £500 by collecting business cards at an marketing event - thank you so much!!
