Former leukaemia sufferer returns to help as a driver
FOR the 31st year, a convoy of 97 taxis carrying children with life-limiting illnesses and their families is heading to Disneyland Paris from Canary Wharf for a weekend away.
The Magical Taxi Tour has given more than 5,000 sick and terminally ill children the trip of a lifetime and the chance to be kids again.
