My picture shows me and my cousin and best friend Lukas Proud. Last year Lukas was diagnosed with medullablastoma and had to spend a lot of time in hospital.

When he was there I really missed him and wanted to go and spend time playing with him. We were lucky as my Auntie Katy stayed at Ronald McDonald House which was an amazing place that has play rooms and toys, it was just like being at home playing with him! The people that worked there were always really nice to us both, and let me join in any activities with Lukas.

In October last year my Mummy says Lukas went to sleep with the Angels and I love and miss him. I want to help other children who have to stay in hospital by raising money for Ronald McDonald House then the facilities are available for years to come. 

A room has been sponsored at Ronald McDonald House in Lukas' memory as a lasting legacy, and a plaque to acknowledge his sponsorship has been placed outside the room. It reads -

This room is sponsored by the friends and family of Lukas Proud - an inspiration to us all.
