<strong>Freddie</strong> &<br />

his family<br />

Two-year-old <strong>Freddie</strong> Hunt<br />

has an inoperable brain<br />

tumour. The only potential<br />

life-saving treatment<br />

available is proton therapy<br />

in the US. Proton Therapy<br />

is more targetted than<br />

normal radio therapy, so<br />

it can concentrate on the<br />

tumour. The treatment<br />

costs at least £100,000<br />

and is not yet available in<br />

this country.<br />

When <strong>Freddie</strong>’s parents<br />

launched the appeal<br />

they were overwhelmed<br />

by the response of the<br />

community of Yateley.<br />

Twelve-year-old Finley<br />

Prendiville, a friend of<br />

<strong>Freddie</strong>’s brother Harry,<br />

shaved his head for<br />

sponsor money. Soon,<br />

<strong>Freddie</strong>’s plight touched<br />

local hearts. The Brain<br />

David and Abby<br />

Hunt with <strong>Freddie</strong><br />

Tumour Charity, Farnborough offered practical and<br />

emotional support. Eagle Radio were also involved and<br />

launched “<strong>Freddie</strong>’s Friday” on 4 November and raised<br />

the donations to over £100,000. The Hunts’ favourite<br />

club, QPR, became involved, <strong>Freddie</strong> meeting the<br />

players and manager. Then Yateley United came up<br />

with the idea of staging this match, and QPR legends<br />

responded by giving their services to this game.<br />

are proud to support<br />
