Bone Marrow

Former patients of the Great North Children's Hospital have celebrated with the head fundraiser of The Bubble Foundation who retires after 32 years.

The father of a young boy from Bessbrook who has leukemia, has made an emotional plea for life-saving bone marrow for his son.

Gateshead six-year-old Leland hit the headlines last year when his search for a bone marrow donor went viral.
