Harry Moseley's Mum writes a book about her little Hero




Georgina Moseley 


THE mum of a cancer-stricken Birmingham youngster who raised more than £650,000 for charity before his tragic death has penned an emotional book charting his inspirational story.

The Harry Moseley Story – “Making it Happen”, was written by Georgie, of Sheldon, in the hope of raising more awareness of her son’s work.

Eleven-year-old Harry not only made bracelets to raise cash for various charities, he also donated gifts he received to other people and visited schools and businesses to talk about his ideas – all whilst battling a brain tumour.
He lost his fight against the illness in October last year, four years after he was diagnosed.
Georgie admitted that producing the biography has been a tearful journey, but she added it was also one of Harry’s last dreams to have his story told.
“He would have been so proud of the book,” she told the Birmingham Mail. “I only wish that it was an autobiography rather than a biography. I’m just writing it on his behalf.
“It has been a real labour of love to put together. There have been emotional moments and I cry whenever I have to read through it again. But I believe Harry deserved this.”
She added: “The story relieves Harry’s life, but focuses more on when he was diagnosed and how he selflessly helped others. A lot of people know about the bracelets, but they don’t know about the other things he did.
“I wanted to tell people about his work and this was the perfect way to do it.”
She decided to write the biography earlier this year with the help of ghost writer Simon Goodyear. All the money raised from sales will also go to charity.
“It’ll make the perfect Christmas present,” Georgina added. “It’s a true story of an inspiring and special boy.”
Harry gripped the nation by making and selling beaded bracelets all by himself, with all the proceeds he raised going to charity. He also organised and arranged to meet CEO’s of large organisations and did presentations at school assemblies and at large public events talking about his business ideas.
He also befriended many people via the social networking site Twitter including many famous celebrities from all over the world.
