Liam Fairhurst dies, age 14, after a four year battle with cancer
I first heard about this kid when he was on Russell Brand’s BBC2 radio show.
[…]after losing his best friend, Jack, to bladder cancer Liam sets out on a fundraising drive in his memory to help other children with cancer and four months later started his fundraising with a one mile sponsored swim which raised over £12,000.
It was the start of a campaign that was to raise some £320,000 in just over two years.
