Funds raised for Kenzy

-

MORE than £200 has been raised for a young boy awaiting a vital liver transplant.

As the Tele reported on Wednesday, seven-yearold Kenzy Oliver of Arbroath was placed on the transplant list as a high priority after a checkup at the beginning of the year revealed the liver condition he was born with had brought on a serious breathing problem.

He requires regular check-ups at Ninewells Hospital and King’s Cross Hospital in London, and staff at Kenzy’s school, Warddykes Primary, have set up an online fundraisin­g page to assist with his family’s travel costs.

The target is £1,000, and so far a total of £217 has been raised for the brave youngster.The school also plans to hold a raffle.

The person who set up the page said: “Thank you to everyone who has donated money and raffle prizes.”

Kenzy’s dad, Nicky, said the help the family has received from Ninewells Hospital and Warddykes Primary has been “amazing”.
