On Wednesday 15th February, Kidspace in Romford held their second Family Fun Day in aid of the Lennox and helped us to raise £145! It was the busiest day of the year so far with hundreds of families passing through the doors. The face painting stall produced many fabulous butterflies, spidermen, pirates and princess, while the book stall and raffle kept parents entertained too.

Alec Jarvis was only nine years old when he sadly lost his fight of a brain tumour in February last year. Six months later Alec’s family made the decision to set up a trust in his memory so that they could give back to the charities who helped them through Alec’s tough fight. The trust was appropriately named ‘Alec’s Angels’ and his parents Sarah and Brian chose three charities to   support; The Lennox Children’s Cancer Fund, Clic Sargent and Helen & Douglas House. The website set up for Alec’s Angels says “We want his love and laughter to be shared amongst the people who helped him most. It’s our time to give back!”
Last year, Alec’s 16 year old cousin put the trust forward to the John Colet School in Aylesbury and asked them to raise funds through their annual ‘Help Week’. They raised lots of money and as a result, we’d like to say a huge thank you to Sarah and Brian for presenting the Lennox with a cheque for £700 on behalf of Alec’s Angels.
