That’s MRI number 36 done. Results next week. Whilst at hospital we met the lovely Jane from ‘James Box of Smiles’ who very kindly gifted Eleanor some Lego. Jane’s son James loved Lego & following his passing in 2022 from a brain tumour, his passion lives on. #eleanorsvoice ❤️✨

Over the past year, Eleanor has been working hard voicing the role of ‘Lark’ for brand new episodes of Milo (season 2). Catch them on Channel5 weekday mornings! Merchandise is here too, so Eleanor now knows exactly what her character is like! There’s even an App! #eleanorsvoice 🤩

Last week Eleanor proudly received a Jack Petchey Fdn #AchievementAward , presented by the former Mayor of The London Borough of #Richmond upon Thames, the lovely Cllr Julia Cambridge. The award recognises outstanding young people aged 11-25 across London & Essex. #eleanorsvoice 💜✨

Recently Eleanor has been working hard towards her London College of Music Examinations Musical Theatre - Grade 2. She only went & totally smashed it! A Distinction! Huge thanks to her singing teacher Ellie, & of course not forgetting The Amber Trust for their continued support. #eleanorsvoice 💜✨

'Thank you to Dr Teapot and Dr Boogie Woogie for coming to see my daughter. She hadn't spoken to any adults during her time in the hospital and started off a little shy but they made her laugh and opened up her shell so much that they had a huge potato fight during a concert!'🧡
