00:13 One or two prezzies it's fair to say.
00:16 Just one or two, yeah.
00:17 These haven't come in the boot of your car have they?
00:19 Many vans.
00:20 Some have.
00:21 Some have.
00:22 All sorts.
00:23 So just fill us in then Claire.
00:25 It's fair to say you're here to bring a bit of festive joy
00:28 but you've been through the mill haven't you?
00:30 What's this all about?
00:31 My three year old was diagnosed on Mother's Day this year
00:34 with neuroblastoma stage 4
00:36 and sadly we lost her October the 19th of this year.
00:40 It's been a whirlwind
00:42 but five days ago I decided I wanted to do this
00:47 and our community and the Greater Tudor Foundation have done this.
00:50 That's amazing.
00:51 Everyone's pulled together.
00:52 In five days you've pulled this together?
00:53 Five days.
00:54 That's something else isn't it?
00:55 We're not doing Christmas this year.
00:56 We're literally, we have a tree.
00:58 You're bringing Christmas.
00:59 We're bringing Christmas rather than doing Christmas.
01:01 Yeah.
01:02 It's nice to do some of that.
01:03 And Grace, you love Christmas and this is her legacy
01:06 and she's always with us
01:07 and by doing this, this is Grace's Christmas day today.
01:10 Awesome.
01:11 Let's give her a big shout out to the team.
01:13 Give us a wave team.
01:14 Woo!

01:20 Bye.
