Charlie is staying away from the chocolate factory to raise hundreds of pounds for the British Heart Foundation
A SIX-YEAR-OLD boy with a serious heart condition is on an Easter de-chox to raise money for the British Heart Foundation.
Charlie Cronick from St Florence has had a number of operations in the Royal Bristol Children’s Hospital, and will need more ops plus a pacemaker in the future.
The youngster enjoys life with his five brothers and sisters and in a keen player for Tenby Under Sevens football team.
Although giving up chocolate for March means Charlie won’t be able to have Easter eggs, he wanted to fundraise “to help others like himself” said his mum, Jess Wharton, and has already raised £425.
