Retailer TK Maxx is sponsoring Cancer Research UK’s Little Star Awards, which recognises
the courage of children who face cancer.

Backed by celebrities including Leona Lewis and David Tennant, the awards, now in
their sixth year, differ from others in that there is no judging panel: “Cancer 
Research UK and TK Maxx believe each and every child who confronts cancer is extra
special”.

Relatives and friends of young cancer patients or survivors from across the UK are
being urged to nominate them now for special recognition in the run up to Christmas.

Each Little Star will receive a £100 TK Maxx voucher, a chrome trophy and a certificate
signed by a host of stars from the worlds of TV, music and sport.

TK Maxx has supported Cancer Research UK since 2004. Its ‘Together for Kids’ fund
has already raised £3 million this year.

The awards are open to all under-17s who have cancer or have been treated for the
disease in the last five years.
