Isaac Cornell, 13, and his mum Tracey have teamed up with youth cancer charity CanTeen in hopes to bring much-needed relief to young people dealing with a parent’s illness.
Ms Cornell, who is overcoming breast cancer, said the support has been “out of this world”.
“He’s had a social worker who comes to support him and he has caught up with other kids in similar situations – it’s just been fantastic,” she said.
