Brain Cancer took my daughter Feb 16 age 19 yrs 5 days raising awareness by sharing her journey & funding 4 research @ Clab KCH London http://charlottesbag.org
One of my very favourite photos of Charlotte. Her dress sense was always so uniquely her - bright, confident, and full of life! Miss those days so much.

Child loss is the abyss of grief.
There’s no end, no light, just moments where you learn to breathe again.
You don’t move on, you move with it.

Just checked our funds to date we’ve actually raised £337,683.53.
Every penny has gone directly to Charlotte’s Lab at King’s College Hospital, London, funding research into brain tumours in memory of my beautiful daughter Charlotte.

It’s been so touching to hear from so many of my former bereaved students after the news of being one of the
Pride of Britain finalists.
Sadly, there are already new students needing bereavement support. I bought these small gifts just to remind them they’re not alone.

It’s lovely to see Charlotte’s BAG included in the Annual Report & Accounts 2024/2025.
A reminder of the impact a small, self-funded charity can make raising vital funds for brain tumour research, while keeping Charlotte’s legacy alive.

Honestly, I don’t know why, but I’m really struggling with your loss lately.
It’s 114 months today since you died.
People often ask if child loss gets easier with time. The answer is simple: no, it doesn’t. You just learn to carry the weight.
Missing you always, Charlotte.

This is the cruellest part of young people facing a cancer diagnosis nowhere to go, few friends, and little to look forward to.

We’ve been kindly donated a signed Brighton & Hove Albion
football shirt to raise funds for the charity
Unfortunately, I’m no football expert. Does anyone know whose signatures these are?
All proceeds will go to brain cancer research at Charlotte’s Lab, King’s College Hospital.
