Our 2019 Christmas Card Competition Winner!
Congratulations to 7 year old Mimi Saveedra for winning this year's Christmas card competition. This year's theme "Anything to do with Christmas, let your imagination run wild" prompted Mimi to design her Christmas Penguin which we all at Nerve Tumours UK just simply love!
Mimi is younger sister to Emilio who is affected by NF1 and is also part of the fantastic fundraising Saveedra family who are known for hosting their amazing "Butterfly Kisses Ball" in aid of NTUK.
Congrats again Mimi 😊
