About Liam's Fund
We are making a special appeal to our army of readers.
We want you to make a Soham schoolboy's dream come true...and in the process, help thousands of sick youngsters and their families.

Liam Fairhurst, aged 12, is raising money for the children's cancer charity CLIC Sargent and is determined to reach his £100,000 target.
And that's where YOU come in.
