James’ friend’s son, Daniel (13), was diagnosed with ALL Leukaemia which had entered his central nervous system which meant his body was shutting down. He was wrongly diagnosed with Bell’s Palsy and was given strong antibiotics which attacks the leukaemia causing significant internal bleeding to the lungs leading him to cardiac arrest and his heart failing.

Fortunately, Daniel was at the hospital and was revived. He is still undergoing treatment for his leukaemia and, whilst he’s lost his hair, is in good spirits and treatment is having a positive effect.

Disasters Emergency Committee

Following Neil’s suggestion of supporting a charity/cause to help those suffering the impact of the war in Ukraine, the Foundation also made the decision to donate £5,000 to the Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal, set up by Disaster Emergency Committee.
