The Weatherstone Families Support Fund

Last week, SGSNY hosted its first ever DJ Party with Society member Trish Mann, aka DJ Misbehaviour, and ten-year-old Alice who came to SGSNY through our Weatherstone Families Support Fund.

The Solieri family recently returned to New York to continue seven-year-old Arianna’s cancer treatment. The current phase of her treatment involves a series of short trips to New York from the UK over several months.

SGSNY was fortunate to meet the Solieri family on their first trip to NYC in December 2023 to begin the vaccine trial for seven-year-old Arianna.

Arianna Solieri, from Ware Hertfordshire (United Kingdom), was diagnosed with stage 4 high-risk neuroblastoma at age five.

SGSNY Program Coordinator Jessica Sims manages the Weatherstone Families Support Fund. She shares her recent experience meeting one of our families, the McCaughans, during their trip to NYC for cancer treatment for 4-year-old Mollie.

Just before of Reuben’s third birthday, his family’s world was turned upside down when he was diagnosed with stage four neuroblastoma. While he is now cancer-free, Reuben’s family traveled to NYC for clinical trials to keep it away. St. George's Society was there to make sure that the big city felt a little more like home.

The Austin family’s journey to the Big Apple was a whirlwind to say the least—for 2-year-old Isla, it was a battle against the odds. SGSNY was there to provide a much-needed support network during their stay.

Four-year-old Lottie has been fighting a battle against high-risk neuroblastoma for more than two years. In order to prevent relapse, Lottie’s family—who are based in the UK—raised enough funds to enroll her in clinical trials at Memorial Sloan Kettering in New York.
