Harry, aged 5, was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2020. He underwent an 9 hour operation where they removed a 8cm long tumour. The following year the tumour began to grow again. This time he had 6 weeks of proton beam therapy. During this time Harry’s dad sadly passed away. Thanks to the amazing teams at Alder Hey and Christie’s and with the support of Tom’s Trust Harry, now 11, is alive, well and leading a happy life. He is the bravest boy I know and an inspiration to us all.

On July 31st Harry and his family are going out of their comfort zones to raise money for Tom’s Trust by paragliding over the Annecy Valley please support them, every pound raised helps Tom’s Trust to do their incredible work

Approximately 10 children and young people aged 0-19 are diagnosed with a brain tumour each week in the UK. Our vision is that all children with brain tumours, and their families, will have access to psychological support – either through our gold standard in-hospital support services or our online resources.

NHS Trusts invest in medical treatment to help a child with a brain tumour survive. Tom’s Trust clinical psychologists are there to ensure those survivors and their families thrive.
