George’s Rockstars was set up in memory of 6 year old George who battled leukaemia from 22 months old to provide music therapy for children facing serious and life limiting/ threatening illnesses or mental health challenges in hospitals that spend a large proportion of their time in hospital.

Story

Father of two, Paul McNeil is taking on the iconic London Marathon in 2025 to support George's Rockstars mission to make children in hospital smile through music therapy.

This isn't the first epic challenge Paul has done for George's Rockstars. After George had a brief time at school with Paul's two sons before he passed away from leukaemia aged just 6, Paul became a regular giver, has attended many fundraising events and took on the mighty 3 peaks challenge in 2023!

After 8 years of applying, Paul has finally secured a place in one of the most iconic and challenging running events in the world and will be taking on the challenge in his 50's.

If you can sponsor Paul, even a pound or two soon adds up to make a huge difference to children like George. Hospital and illness can be incredibly scary for children and their families and our music therapy sessions bring much needed smiles during difficult times.
