Meet our CarFest Ambassador Luke, aged 14, who is being treated for T-cell acute lymphoblastic lymphoma, a cancer of the blood.

Monica from Rainbow Trust began supporting his family in May 2024, providing his grandmother Lindsey with respite and helping Luke with his social development, isolation and anxiety. Monica has become a positive stable presence for both Luke and Lindsey during an extremely traumatic time.

"My treatment was really tough and being away from school and my friends has been hard. Rainbow Trust has helped me feel more confident again and supported my family through a difficult time. I’m really proud to be part of CarFest and help show how much support like this can mean," said Luke.

In July 2022, Robyn and Rosie were born prematurely at just 27 weeks. During this time, their mum Tori was torn between two hospitals, constantly travelling backwards and forwards, worrying about her babies being alone in hospital.

“I could only hold each twin for an hour a day. Then I had to put them back in the incubator. It was heartbreaking.” said Tori.

The family have been supported by Family Support Worker Michelle since October 2022.

Michelle supported Tori in coping with the stress of having two babies in hospital, helping her manage the overwhelming amount of information and understand complex medical jargon

Tori said: “Life with Michelle is less stressful. The time Michelle spent with Robyn in hospital when I couldn’t go in meant the world to me.”

"The trip to the zoo gave my girls the chance to do something normal and fun in such a difficult situation. They got to have a day where they could just be kids and have no worries of hospitals and medications just a day full of fun! I can't thank Rainbow Trust enough for the trip that made my kids so happy." - Mum of Aubrey and Demi

Siblings Aubrey and Demi recently enjoyed a fun filled day out at White Elm Petting Zoo with our Essex Care team. The trip gave the girls the opportunity to play and have fun, while also allowing their mum to have some much-needed respite

In July 2022, Robyn and Rosie were born prematurely. During this time, their mum Tori was torn between two hospitals, constantly travelling backwards and forwards, worrying about her babies being alone in hospital.

As their mum Jess had to keep working to support the family, Tori’s mum looked after their older daughter Riley. The hospital referred the family to Rainbow Trust, and they have been supported by Family Support Worker Michelle since October 2022.

Mum Tori said: “I have no time anymore. Everything has changed. I used to be able to do things with Riley but there’s just not the time for that anymore. Michelle comes round to play with Riley and takes her out for fun days out. This ensures Riley doesn’t miss out on childhood experiences or opportunities to socialise with other children.”

Michelle also helps to ensure Riley does not fall behind with her education by helping with school pick-ups and Riley’s homework.

Robyn and Rosie were born prematurely at just 27 weeks.

10 days after birth, Robyn developed a serious condition called necrotising enterocolitis (NEC), where tissue in the bowel becomes inflamed. She needed urgent surgery and was rushed to a specialist hospital in Southampton whilst her twin sister Rosie remained in Portsmouth.

During this time, their mum Tori was torn between two hospitals, constantly travelling backwards and forwards, worrying about her babies being alone in hospital.

Family Support Worker Michelle begun to support the family in October 2022.

Michelle supported Tori in coping with the stress of having two babies in hospital, helping her manage the overwhelming amount of information and understand complex medical jargon. She also assisted with paperwork and applications, such as for Disability Living Allowance and the Blue Badge.

Tori said: “Every day is structured, and every medication is timed. It’s become our new normal. It can be isolating. But Michelle is always there for a chat. It is also nice just to have someone to offload to and talk to about my concerns.”
