Ollie spent almost 8 months in the Freeman Hospital, Newcastle, waiting for a heart transplant. He sacrificed so much in the hope of a future with his family but was ultimately let down by the national organ donation system. However, the treatment and support he received in Newcastle was only ever delivered with sensitivity and compassion. He wished for the kindness he received to be recognised through charitable donations to the Newcastle Hospitals Charity after his death.

We wish to raise money, on behalf of Ollie, to honour his life and those who did everything that they could to prolong it.

As the official Charity of Newcastle Hospitals, every penny raised is spent locally to improve the health and wellbeing of people in the North East and beyond. Home of the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation and the Great North Children's Hospital, we help to make a positive difference for the patients, staff and communities of Newcastle Hospitals.
