Oliver's Army

Headshave and personal fundraising challenges

Hi - I'm George. That's me on the left. On the right is my twin brother Oliver. He's two minutes older than me and never lets me forget it. 

In December, we found out Oliver had a cancerous brain tumour that had spread to his spine. He can't have an operation but doctors are treating him with intensive radiotherapy and then chemotherapy. 

We are all very worried but very grateful to our friends and family who are supporting us. Oliver is being very brave. 

My friends and I would like to raise some money for Young Lives Vs Cancer - a charity that supports families when a child is diagnosed with cancer. We think this would help to cheer Oliver up as well. 

Some of us want to shave our heads (so Oliver doesn't feel so conscious about losing his hair) but lots of friends want to do their own challenges and raise money in their own way. 

Thank you to everyone at our Primary School and to our local communities in Stockport for supporting us. And a huge thank you to everyone who donates. 

Lots of love

George and friends
