THE

Ringing the bell! Magnificent moment

DETERMINED

Ruby in Y3 is about to ‘ring the bell’!

This is a significant achievement and a moment to be proud of in the battle against cancer. The end of treatment bell symbolises the end of radiation treatment and being ready to get back to normal life. Ringing the bell is a huge milestone for a child with cancer. End of treatment bells are put into hospitals by the wonderful people at ‘End of Treatment Bells’. Ringing the bell is a moment for the whole family to celebrate – an opportunity to reflect on what’s been an emotional and physical journey, and to think about the future. The end of treatment bell inspires children with cancer to persevere and it brings hope for the future when things are tough.

Thanks to Ruby’s parents for the story.

[Ed - well done to Ruby and the whole family. Everyone is so proud of you. The bell in the photo is a representation of the real event]
