BE BRAVE, BE BOLD, BE GOLD! 
Today’s post comes with a special message from Teagan, inviting you all to join us TONIGHT for Champ’s BIG Golden Quiz! Starting at 6:30pm with your host Dr Bob Phillips! 
‘Taegan, aged 12, was diagnosed with an ovarian germ cell tumour on 6th December 2018. She spent time on Ward 31 and 33 and as a family, we will be eternally grateful to the fantastic staff at LGI and to the brilliant people at Candlelighters for all their help and support; even now, after treatment, they always show how much they care.
Thank you so much!’
– Mum, Kelly. 
Please be the spark that keeps our candle burning and give a Regular Gift today, so we can bring light to families like Taegan’s in these darkest of times.
