Tyne Tees Neuroblastoma

A family from Sunderland are trying to raise £230,000 for a potentially life-saving vaccine after their six-year-old son was diagnosed with cancer.

A study has found a genetic marker in tumours from patients with high-risk neuroblastoma - the cancer that took the life of Sunderland fan Bradley Lowery.

Frankie Sherwood, 4, passed away on Monday morning after a battle with the childhood cancer neuroblastoma.
