Story

When Jude was younger, he had a multi-visceral (5-organ) transplant. Sadly, earlier this year, the organs failed, and things are very difficult.

One thing that helped Jude through months in the hospital was watching musicals online. He loves them and has made a bucket list of ones he wants to see. 

Could you help send him to a musical? Either making a donation, sharing this post, or if anyone has any contacts who might be able to get some donated? If you're able to sponsor tickets, we can post thank-you messages on our social media.

My email, if you're able to help is viks@postpals.co.uk

Jude also enjoys receiving post and would love to hear from other musical fans (please don't expect a reply) or receive musical themed post. There is an address on his page here

The Musical Bucket List

-Heathers (he watched this ALL the time in hospital)

-Newsies (closes in July)

-Grease

-Six

-Mrs Doubtfire

-Back to the future

-Matilda (Jude saw this before his transplant and it became one of his favourite shows, he would like to see it again)

-Harry Potter And The Cursed Child part 1 and 2

-Wizzard of Oz

Jude would also love to visit The Theatre Cafe Diner

If we have enough donations Jude would also like a memory making family trip with his family to the Harry Potter Studios and over night stay.

**Update July 11th**

Thank you to the musical theatre community for the amazing response!

We had kind offers of ticket for some shows and even some offers to meet the cast!

People also kindly donated so we’ve been able to purchase tickets to other shows and Jude has been able to treat himself to some merch and programmes.

We used the donations to buy tickets to see Newsies and Jude fell in love with the character Sven at Frozen and wanted the cuddly toy of him.

Jude’s Mum said;

Thank you all so much! You don’t realise just how much this gives Jude in terms of therapy in itself! He is so very anxious after the huge trauma that he has gone through and this allows him to immerse himself into stories with music. Even at 13 he is able to truly embrace the magic.
