His commitment to supporting sick kids and their families has helped raise vital awareness and funds for children’s healthcare.

"I have supported families for decades who have found themselves in this situation trying to show both empathy and sympathy but it's not until your family is directly impacted you realise the implications, but I will say our circumstances has seen my family and friends gather round my daughter and son in law and their two other children like never before"
