The sun shone for the launch of our brand new Children’s Cancer Awareness Month campaign at Free Derry Corner in September.

It featured beautiful Derry girl Kari Barrett who had a rare form of cancer as a young child but is now cancer free.

Kari was last photographed for us when she was 7 and she is now 12 years old.

Local photographer, Neil McLaughlin did a brilliant job of capturing her at both ages.

We were delighted to officially launch our new poster with the help of Kari’s mum Lorraine, dad Kevin and her grandparents Margaret & Bertie, and Frankie.

It was lovely to see how proud they are of this very special girl.

We’d like to say a huge Hive thank you to Kari & her family for their continued support of our work & our annual Children’s Cancer Awareness Month campaign.
