Andrea's nomination story

Andrea is the most kind hearted person i have ever known, Andrea lost her son Jordan Thompson on 15/09/2007 age 15 to an infection whilst battling with leukeamia, Jordan was an amazing teenager and a great friend of mine. Jordan put his life into fundraising for children and teeangers in the same situation as himself, and when Jordan sadly passed away his mam and close family and friends decided that it was the only thing to to, set up a charity in his memory and continue the amazing work he had started. The Toma Fund is a stand alone charity run by Andrea Thomspon and her close family and friends including myself, to date we have rasied a staggering £3500,000+ for children, teenager, young people and their families fighing cancer. The charity has grown and grown and gone from strength to strength and all of this has been made possible by one person ANDREA!!!!
