Abbie's Army

‘Abbie's Army’ is a charity that has been formed after the loss of just one of the 40 precious children in the UK who are affected by DIPG every year. Abbie was just six years old when she passed away five months after her diagnosis in September 2011 . In her memory ‘Abbie’s Army’ are now totally committed to raising funds and awareness for research into this horrific brain cancer. No family should have to hear that there is no cure and yet every nine DAYS a UK family receives this diagnosis for their child. Brain cancer research is an area severely underfunded and overlooked for far too long.
