Bradley – a keen football fan – formed a close friendship with then-Sunderland AFC striker Jermain Defoe. The two met when Bradley acted as mascot at the Stadium of Light for his beloved Black Cats.

In the wake of Bradley’s death three years ago, his family – from Blackhall – channelled their grief into the creation of a charity in his name.

To date, the Bradley Lowery Foundation has supported poorly children who face a range of challenges in fundraising for treatment and equipment, developed a holiday home in Scarborough so families can make precious memories, and launched a support line for the parents of children with cancer – raising more than £3million in the process.

The charity’s work was inspired by Bradley’s own kindness and determination to support the other youngsters he met during his own time in hospital.
