Tragic parents sue charity for £100k of son's fundraiser

TRAGIC parents who lost their nine-year-old son to cancer — only to learn his little sister is also terminally ill — are suing a charity which refuses to hand over £100,000 of donations made for him.

Lego-loving Kyle Morrison died in 2020 after being diagnosed with an incurable brain cancer, leaving heartbroken parents, Craig Evison and Victoria Morrison, behind.

Before his death, wellwishers donated thousands to pay for treatment in the US and “memory making” experiences for the family, but Covid intervened and he never travelled.

Devastating

The couple went on to have a daughter, Ruby-Rose, now two, but were devastated to learn that she too was seriously ill, with a genetic metabolic disease, and was unlikely to live beyond this summer.

They then began a Go Fund Me page, under the name “Ruby-Rose’s Making Memories Fund”, in an attempt to take her to Disney in Florida to meet her beloved Minnie Mouse.
