In January 2019 the Smyth family from Ballymacnab, County Armagh, received the news that no family ever want to hear, that their son Niall, who was only 6 at the time, had Leukaemia. Since then, Niall and his entire family have received unbelievable support from three charities, and as a token of their appreciation, and to help other children and families in a similar position, they have organised a fundraising campaign to provide much needed support for these charities:
· The Children’s Cancer Unit
· CLIC Sargent
· Angel Wishes
The way that Niall has dealt with his illness has been an inspiration to his family, friends and to the wider community, he has been an absolute warrior, showing amazing strength and resilience throughout all of the challenges he has faced since January. The Committee are calling this fundraising campaign “Warrior Kids’ – Fight Against Leukaemia” because they think it sums up the fighting spirit of every child who suffers from Cancer
A Gala Night is being held in the Armagh City Hotel on Saturday 18th April 2020, which sold out within hours. This page gives an opportunity for everyone to give to a very worthy cause and help families going through the same situation. Thanks for your kindness.
