Huge thanks to The Phoenix Garden for hosting the exhibition. The Phoenix Garden is a community garden and registered charity (287502). Nestled in the heart of London’s West End, it provides a green retreat and an oasis of calm from the stresses of the city and a valuable habitat for urban wildlife. Both Ben and Finn enjoyed visiting the garden and the memories of those times together hold a special place in our hearts.

Pass The Smile for Ben have organised a free art exhibition My Cancer Journey - Art in the Park - encouraging children, parents and artists with a connection to childhood cancer to share their stories in a creative way.

36 artists and artist advocates from around the country are showcasing their artworks in the Coventry Peace Orchard in Coventry. The exhibition features the children's stories and explains why art and creativity have been so important to them and their families.

The exhibition was previously on display at The Quarry Gardens in Baginton, the Coventry Sitting Rooms of Culture at Coventry market and in the SENA woods in Earlsdon, Coventry.

Pass The Smile For Ben are raising funds for research into rhabdomyosarcoma and more better, kinder, targeted treatments. If you would like, please make a donation to Ben’s named fund.
