Help a very special Boy

Our Milo donations

Milo Browne is a very brave little boy who suffers from delayed physical and mental development and has so far baffled medical experts who are unable to give a diagnosis of his condition. He was born and lives with his family in Howdon, Newcastle upon Tyne.

Milo's parents want to give him the very best quality of life they possibly can, however the reality is that to do so will cost money, far more than they could possibly afford.

This is important because Milo's main way of learning is through play, and sensory play is vital, and you can help make a real change in his life.

Click on Milo's logo above to go directly to his fund raising site and see how you can make a real difference.
