Conner and Libby (pictured above) are twin brother and sister who have lived in the same foster family together since they were 5 months old.Conner is a happy little boy who is always smiling. He enjoys a variety of children’s TV programmes, musical toys and walking. Conner currently uses no language but communicates in other ways and this is thought to be due to autistic spectrum disorder.

Libby is a sociable little girl who laughs a lot. She enjoys shopping and holding her foster career’s hands. Libby is very independent and although she currently has significant speech delay, she has made a lot of progress. She is attempting to make appropriate sounds and can say a few words.

They have had traumatic early experiences and appear to have some resulting learning difficulties.

They are both being seen by a clinical psychologist and a speech and language therapist. Conner and Libby are being taught Makaton so that they can communicate with their foster carer.

CHRISTMAS 2011 ISSUE 8

Primary Times remembers

Harry Moseley Harry Moseley was an incredibly brave boy who was

diagnosed with an incurable brain tumour in 2007 at the

age of just 7. Doctors could not remove Harry’s tumour

due to its position in the brain.

Sadly, Harry’s health deteriorated in July 2011. He had an

emergency operation in August, which resulted in him remaining

in a coma for eight weeks. Doctors advised Harry’s family to take

him home to rest. Harry passed away peacefully in his mother’s

arms on Saturday October 8. He will be sadly missed.

Harry went through a lot with his illness, but he never let it get him

down. He had chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment to try

to shrink the size of the tumour. It was during the radiotherapy

that Harry met someone who had a great impact on his life.

Robert Harley and Harry started their radiotherapy on the same

day and became great friends. When Robert’s health took a turn

for the worse, Harry decided to do something about it.

Harry started to make and sell beaded bracelets with all the

money going to brain tumour research. The bracelets became

so popular that Harry set up a campaign that he named Help

Harry Help Others. Sadly, four weeks into the campaign, Robert

passed away aged just 55. Harry became committed to

dedicating his life to helping others.

With the support of his loving family, Harry worked tirelessly on the campaign by making and selling bracelets, attending fundraising events, speaking at schools and businesses as well as keeping loyal to his ever growing ‘Twitfam’ on Twitter. @Harry_Moseley currently has over 100,000 followers, among which are many celebrities including Rio Ferdinand, Duncan Bannatyne and Ben Shephard.

Harry sold over 30,000 bracelets and single-handedly raised over £170,000 for brain tumour research as well as helping Cancer Research UK raise hundreds of thousands of pounds more by appearing and speaking at events.

It is Harry’s wish that the whole of the UK wear one of his bracelets with pride so that his legacy will live on through his campaign.

To read more about Harry’s inspirational story and to find out how to purchase a bracelet, visit www.helpharryhelpothers.com

Little Star AwardsThe courage of children with cancer in the West Midlands is being recognised

with a unique award. The Little Star Awards from Cancer Research UK,

in partnership with TK Maxx are inviting people across the region to

nominate young cancer patients or survivors for special recognition of

their courage and bravery.

Last year, 24 children from across the West Midlands received a Little

Star Award. Recipients get a trophy, a certificate signed by a host of

celebrities and the first 300 nominees will receive a £50 TK Maxx

voucher … so, don’t delay, nominate your Little Star today.

Cancer Research UK has helped to transform the lives of children

with cancer for the last 40 years, and they continue to work hard.

Thanks to the generosity of supporters and donators of Cancer

Research UK, the survival rate of childhood cancers has dramatically

increased over the years. The Little Star Awards go a long way to

recognising the battles that children with cancer suffer every day. You can

help by nominating your own Little Star.

HOW TO MAKE THE CARD

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

. On a fl at surface, fold the green card in half width ways. . Follow our template and cut out the shapes to make Santa’s hat and cuff, face, cheeks and beard. . Lay out your pieces of paper in front of you on a fl at surface. Use the glue stick to stick Santa on to the front of the card. Make sure that the opening to the card is on your right. First, put glue on the back of the hat, then stick it down near the top of the card, being sure to leave room to write at the top after. Next, put glue on the back of the face and place it under the hat, leaving a little gap for the hat brim. Then, put glue on the back of the hat brim and place that between the bottom of the hat and the top of the face. Next, put glue on the back of the cheeks and stick down

onto Santa’s face. Then, glue Santa’s beard down underneath his face. . For this step you will be using scissors – ask for help from an adult if you are not confi dent using scissors. Get the pom pom or bell and glue the fl at side to the point of Santa’s hat. . Use a black pen to draw dots for Santa’s eyes. . Use the white/silver pen to write your message on your card. We went for ‘Merry Christmas’ across the top of the card and ‘Ho! Ho! Ho!’ at the bottom. Enjoy making this card for your family and friends. All of the items that you need are available in all good craft and stationery shops.
