Below is a message from Zoe - part owner of The Kingsway Lights:

As many of you know, my son Archie was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy back in June after two years of trying to find out what was wrong with him. He’s only five years old so as you can imagine this has literally been the biggest shock you could ever think of.

We as a family have fought for two years to try and find out what was wrong with him with a lot of medical professionals trying to say that it was all in our heads and he was perfectly healthy.

As a mum, I just knew something wasn’t right. I thought long and hard to get to the bottom of it I just wasn’t expecting this outcome. As many of you know there is no treatment, there is no cure, this is a terminal illness unfortunately and it has broke all of our hearts.

Every day trying to put on a brave face is a struggle but he’s such a happy little boy and I know he’s gonna fight this all the way. Looking at him now you would never know there’s anything wrong with him but knowing what his future holds is absolutely heartbreaking. I’m lucky to have many friends and very close family who’s going to help us fight it all the way we are going to do all the fundraising we possibly can for the rest of our lives to try and raise money to help them find a cure or even a treatment, not just for Archie, but for all the other poor children and adults who are fighting the same awful condition. Thank you so much for all of your support at this difficult time. We will still be there with smiles on our faces welcoming you all every year hoping to raise as many pennies as we can.
