The 22nd Anniversary Summer Party

"Caroline Randerson has organised so many successful fundraising events for us over the past 20 years, including her renowned annual Summer Party which has been hosted by many famous faces including Jeremy Beadle, Chris Tarrant and this year, special guest compère will be Bobby Davro.  

In the years before she moved to Spain this would take place in Surrey. Caroline’s move from Surrey to sunny Spain didn’t put an end to her fundraising. She decided to hold her annual Summer Party at the famous Villa Tiberio in Marbella. The restaurant, owned and run by restaurateur, Sandro Morelli, is just a few minutes walk from Marbella’s prestigious Golden Mile and set within 6,000 square metres of formal Italian gardens.  

Her events are always a sell out and to date she has raised almost £500,000 for CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA which is an amazing achievement. This may not have happened without the support and generosity of many companies and local businesses, both in the UK and Spain, donating their services or goods to ensure her events are a success." - Children with Leukaemia Charity

The Charity   CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA was founded by Eddie and Marion O’Gorman who lost their son Paul to leukaemia when he was just 14. Nine months later they lost their daughter Jean also to cancer.  

The charity was inaugurated by Diana, Princess of Wales in January 1988 after she heard about, and was moved by, the O’Gorman’s double tragedy. She remained interested in the charity and continued to be a source of inspiration, keeping in touch and giving encouragement until her untimely death in 1997.  

CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA is now Britain’s leading charity dedicated to the conquest of this devastating disease. Not only do they fund ground-breaking research into the development of more effective, yet kinder, treatments, but they have a worldwide programme of research investigating the underlying causes of the disease.  

One of the greatest medical success stories of the last century is the increase in the survival rate from childhood leukaemia - but leukaemia still claims the lives of one in five children diagnosed in the UK.  

Welfare is another important element of the work of the charity. Facilities such as the Paul O’Gorman Patient Hotel in Great Ormond Street help to make the journey through treatment a little easier to bear by providing comfortable and convenient accommodation for children and families visiting the hospital, often from far afield, for their many outpatient appointments.   CHILDREN with LEUKAEMIA receives no government funding and without the support and generosity of the general public, their celebrity friends and many other individuals, their work would not be possible.
