The Jane Tomlinson Appeal is set to deliver a major boost to communities across Yorkshire, the Midlands and the Liverpool City Region, awarding £297,000 to 26 charities through its ‘Big Charity Giveaway.’

Eve lost her dad unexpectedly when she was just eight years old. Reflecting on that time, she says: “Looking back on photos of myself as a child, I’m not sure I fully realised just how young I was.” She remembers feeling as though she had to grow up quickly in the face of such a difficult and adult situation.

The Jane Tomlinson Appeal has funded a new Senior Physiotherapist role in palliative care at Leeds Teaching Hospitals – creating a position that would not otherwise exist without the charity’s support and significantly extending the care available to cancer patients.

Before her death, Jane wanted to ensure that her family could have the chance to find answers that could affect their own health.
