We heard recently about a 5 Yr old boy who had both legs amputated due to abuse by his birth parents. He wanted to raise £500 for the hospital that have helped him by walking every day in June, the BBC website are saying he's raised over £1 million, someone else worthy of an award I think

Oh that is amazing, bless his little heart, after all he's been through and at his age. For one so young that is just incredible and I agree about the award Jenny. He apparently set out to win five million thousand pounds 😊 (Daily Mirror).

Oh wow, what an amazing boy and only 5. With what he's suffered to be even thinking about raising money is incredible.

I totally agree, one for an award.

It really brings tears to your eyes, tears of joy, that this little boy has so much courage and must be enjoying what he is doing, helping , It's just amazing. Well worthy of an award and all the toys a boy would want. 🙏😊

A very special boy.

That is amazing achievement.

I remember your mentioning him previously Jennymary. This is an amazing achievement, and even more-so, coming from someone who has had such a tough start in life. Absolutely wonderful! 👍🙏

Yes, Tony Hudgell has put a lot of us to shame. His adoptive parents were told that he wouldn't walk! His story of awful abuse at the hands of his birth parents is shameful. Ì have to admit that I wept buckets when I saw him on the TV yesterday. Such a brave little soldier and worthy of a Pride Of Britain award at the very least.

Hello Jennymary

I have not heard of this little chap before, l feel so humbled just thinking all that he has gone through at such a very young age.

He definitely needs as much support as possible, in every way.

Oh yes. I have been watching him on tv. I think his name is Tony. He is a very determined little boy and what wonderful parents he now has. x

i saw him on bbc breakfast a couple of weeks ago. the story captured my heart so i searched JustGiving straight away, the total was only about £500 then, now i believe he has raised thousands for the Evelina Children's Hospital (part of St Thomas's in London) to improve the quality of life for other children. I thought he was such a great little boy with a devilish laugh and his now parents have made him a very happy and sociable boy. It is so worth contributing to his cause.
