00:00And in this case, the winner is Angel Moms.
00:03Wow, we are absolutely blown away, especially seeing the videos from the other two finalists
00:15and we are sending so much love to Team Corinne and the Wonky Heart Challenge, both two fantastic
00:20causes.
00:22This is more than winning an award to us, it's having our children honoured and raising
00:26much needed awareness of the desperate plight of brain tumours.
00:31We didn't know that brain tumours killed more of our children than any other cancer until
00:35it was too late and our children's lives were cut short.
00:39Our children deserve to be here, but they're not.
00:43We desperately wanted to save them, but we couldn't.
00:46This is beyond painful and we all carry this pain every second of our lives.
00:52We want to channel our pain and our energy into making a difference for other children
00:56diagnosed with a brain tumour in both their journey and eventually the outcome.
01:02We're stronger together, we want to turn our pain into hope and we're working with the
01:06Tessa Jowell Foundation to support the Children's Centres of Excellence.
01:10That means improving standards of care for children diagnosed with brain tumours throughout
01:14the UK.
01:16We've skydived that you've seen, we've climbed Snowdon, we've wing-walked and we're really
01:20excited for the next challenge which is our firewalk on the 19th of October.
01:24Nothing phases us because we've seen our children go through the unthinkable.
01:29Please support us and help us reach our target.
01:32Obviously the QR code will be on there and you can see our link on JustGiving.
01:35We don't want other children and parents to face the trauma that we have and we need help
01:40to be able to change things.
01:42To our children up there in the sky, we miss you with every breath.
01:46This is for all of you and the other brain tumour angels.
