As one family and their special little girl can testify. Chantel, Chris Turner's niece had a wonderful trip to Windsor and got to meet her hero the star of the BBC childrens programme 'Tracy Beaker'

Unfortunately not long after this day Chantel passed away, however the memory of this day will live on for many years to come.
Days like this one make a real difference to children and young people suffering from serious illnesses but not only does it make a difference to them it gives families a memory which will always stay close to their hearts.
