Shropshire grandfather makes urgent appeal to save grandson's life

A Shropshire grandfather has made an urgent plea to help raise £500,000 for life-saving treatment for his 10-year-old grandson.

Dave Perrin, of Lea Cross wants to raise as much funding as possible to get urgent medical treatment for his grandson Harry Banks.

Harry has twice beaten a rare form of cancer known as Neuroblastoma in the last four years.

But doctors are concerned that his aggressive cancer cells could return and current treatment methods in the UK are unlikely to be effective.

So far the "Mad About Harry" appeal has raised £120,000 with help of support from cricketers Darren Gough and Alastair Cook who have both shared Harry's story on social media.
