In 2024, Ezra was diagnosed with leukaemia and introduced to our BubbleBuster project by Northampton Town Football Club, which kept him in touch with school, his friends and football.
Tonight, Ezra will be one of the Matchday Mascots for Northampton Town Football Club's match against AFC Wimbledon!

One of our greatest joys as a charity is to be able to enable human connection, community and fun, and recently we were able to do this in a big way, helping Mark to be at his lifelong best friend’s wedding!
