At the start of September 2013 Samuel was admitted to St George’s hospital in South London. He was diagnosed with a cancer, one that is very rare – Precursor T-Cell Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. He saw how hard it was for the other children to suffer the pain, fear and loneliness of serious illness so he asked his dad to start a charity to help them.
Now, Samuel’s Charity helps thousands of seriously and terminally ill children in underfunded wards.
We provide entertainment equipment – Games Stands that have a new games console, 24 inch TV, storage for controllers and multiple games – the Stand is on wheels so can be used anywhere especially in isolation rooms where they are needed most. We also provide Accuveins – handheld scanner that reduces most or all of pain from injections for kids. These are just some of the items that transform the treatment and reduce the pain and depression so many children suffer daily.
