Team Archie: Stronger Than Leukaemia

Donation protected
Join us in standing beside Archie as he takes on his toughest battle.

Our beautiful boy, Archie, is just 6 years old. We first thought he only had something minor, like tonsillitis or scarlet fever. But after weeks of worry, tests, and hospital visits, our world was turned upside down when he was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.

As if that wasn’t enough, while we were waiting for answers, Archie developed even more complications. He was diagnosed with myocarditis (inflammation of the heart), and doctors also found multiple blood clots — one dangerously close to his heart. On top of everything else, he has had to endure challenges that no child should ever face. Through it all, Archie has shown a courage and resilience that inspires everyone around him. He truly is our little superhero.

I am a single parent doing everything I can to be there for Archie. At the same time, my two older boys, aged 11 and 10, are at home being lovingly cared for by my mum. They are struggling with the separation from their mum and their little brother, and I miss them dearly. The hospital is over a two-hour car journey away, and as I don’t drive, the distance feels even harder. Being apart from them breaks my heart, as they are my everything too.

This journey is not only emotionally overwhelming — it also comes with a huge financial strain. Between food costs, travel to and from hospital and the extra support all three of my boys need, it’s more than I can manage alone.

We are setting up this fundraiser to ask for help. Every single donation, no matter the size, will go directly towards:
• Supporting travel during his treatment
• Making sure Archie has the comfort and things he needs to keep his spirits up
• Helping ease the strain on his brothers at home and reunite our family as often as possible
  • Specialist bedding, towels and equipment
  • Any additional financial burdens we have not yet considered

I can honestly say from the bottom of my heart it was the last thing we ever expected to hit our family, it’s something you read online but would never happen to you but the unfortunate truth is it did happen to us and we appreciate you even just reading Archie’s story.
Archie deserves the chance to grow up healthy, happy, and strong. With your love, prayers, and generosity, we can help give him that chance.

From the bottom of our hearts — thank you for standing with Archie and our family.
