Help raise money to bring Callum home

Help raise money to bring Callum home and contribute to his funeral expenses.

As some of you are aware we lost a young family member Callum last Friday. He had lost a 9-week battle to save his life.

Callum was 23 years old and suffered from Cerebral Palsy as well as a few other health problems.
He was well-liked by all who came in contact with him as well as inspirational. He always believed that others were much worse off than him and his physical disability did not stop him from achieving his goals.
Callum leaves a brother Andy, 3 sisters Kayleigh, Emily and Lauren who also suffers from cerebral palsy plus 4 nieces between the ages of 12 weeks old and 9 years old.
His mother has struggled throughout the 9-week ordeal to ensure care was provided for all, particularly Lauren.

Callum was transported to 4 different hospitals throughout the UK in a bid to find a surgical team who were sufficiently equipped to cater for his medical needs as well as mending a leaking heart. Unfortunately, all efforts failed, with his body simply getting too tired to continue his battle to recover.

As a full-time carer of 2 disabled children, his mum only receives benefits and often struggles to make ends meet.

Having to spend a large amount of money paying for accommodation during Callums 2 week stay in Brompton Hospital has taken its toll on her finances.

Callum's body is currently in London, having died at Brompton Hospital in Chelsea, and needs to be transported back to Hull.

Therefore, I would like to try and help raise money to help transport Callum home and to help with his funeral costs and possibly either a memorial or donation to a charity.

Please try to make a donation and share this post as much as possible. Without some funding, Callum cannot be laid to rest.

Every contribution, no matter the size, will help bring Callum home and provide the family with the ability to give him the send-off he deserves.

Thank you for taking the time in reading this appeal.
