The purpose of the Trust is to help improve the lives of children who are suffering from cancer. This is not solely isolated to helping the children directly, but also in improving the lifestyle of the family unit or guardians who are supporting a child. ~ Peter Yates (Chairman)
About The Trust: Emily is a little girl, a princess just like any other child until that desperate day in August 1999 when she was diagnosed with Leukaemia. Emily was only 5 when she was diagnosed.
After 18 months into Emily's treatment she was rushed into Intensive Care and treated for septicaemia, her little body went into shut down, the family's whole world falling apart around them but little did they know this was just the start! After safely recovering from this setback, Emily returned to her treatment regime, finally going into remission in November 2001.
