Story

As September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we are hoping to raise some money in memory of our gorgeous nephew Louis, who died at the age of 7 from neuroblastoma. Our walk is 114km of the Camino Frances, across northern Spain.

Theodora Children's Charity transforms children’s experience of hospitals from an environment that can be scary and isolating into a place of fun, play and laughter. Our Giggle Doctors are specially trained performers, who combine music, play and storytelling, to bring moments of joy and laughter to thousands of children facing huge challenges with their health. With each visit, we aim to reduce distress and anxiety, increase opportunities for play and improve children’s experience of hospital.

Louis was a big fan of the Giggle Doctors and very much shared their sense of the ridiculous!
