Story

This week in memory of Ben Pritchard and what would have been his 12th birthday,  I will be aiming to cycle 12km a day between my birthday on the 8th June and Ben’s on the 16th.

As we are away over the weekend I will be adding the miles to other days,  so in total I will be riding 108km over the 9 days.

As a friend, I think of Ben all the time and as a football team we miss him lots.

Ben died of a rare and aggressive brain tumour when he was 8. Sarah and Shane set up Be More Ben to help with bereavement support and services which have continued throughout the Covid -19 Pandemic.

If you would like to donate as birthday wishes for myself and in memory of Ben, it would be great.


Thanks, Tommy

About the charity

Be More Ben

Verified by JustGiving

RCN 1178933
Our son Ben was diagnosed with DIPG, a very rare and aggressive brain tumour, aged 7. Previously fit and well, on diagnosis, we were told his tumour was inoperable and incurable and that we had at best a year left with our son. Despite taking part in a clinical trial and having intensive treatment, Ben passed away 6 months later. Following his death, we found little in the way of regular, ongoing support that was informal and for the whole family. To lose a child and feel that there is no help available to you is frightening and leaves you feeling isolated and vulnerable. We set up The Benjamin Pritchard Foundation – Be More Ben to enhance bereavement support and services for parents, families and siblings who have lost a child under the age of 18.
