Jake is a little boy with Leukemia. He has suffered terribly with cancer, and while vunerable, caught a fungal infection that spread aggressively all over his brain. He is three years old. he has lost months and months of his life to hospitals and his illness. His struggle hasn't ended. He has another 3 years of treatment left.

He understands his illness, and accepts his daily IV infusions, 22 daily oral medicines, hospital stays, lumbar punctures, MRI's, Cat Scans, ECG's, CT's, X-rays and seemingly never ending new horrors.

Despite this, Jake has incredible strength. He has started somewhat of a revolution, and would very much like to continue it.

Children with cancer spend so much of their time in hosptial, and the play rooms are sadly not very well funded (in fact, they are not funded at all. It's is totally based on charitable donations).

The play room is desperately in need of play items and refurbishment. It's is an old ward, and still has signs of this everywhere. We want to change that, not only for his ward, but for every child cancer ward.

There are so many pediatric wards that have nothing. Some old colouring books with every page half scribbled on. Games with dice missing. Table top games without the balls. Toys with parts missing.

Jake wants to change that. He has already started, and you can see the progress here: https://www.colourprince.co.uk/pages/jakes-story

The money raised here will directly be used to help make children with cancer have a nicer environment and play areas while they are in hospital. All too often even when you donate to the hospital, it takes too long. They have commitees, boards, meetings and endless red tape.
We're fortunate to have the trust and relationship, working directly with the children services of pediatric oncology.

Please help make the time spent in hospital for these children diagnosed with cancer better. I beg you.
