Grantham cancer patient Charlie, 14, enjoys trip of a lifetime to Lapland with stars from Emmerdale

A young cancer patient has enjoyed the Christmas trip of a lifetime to Lapland.

Charlie Tatchell, 14, was one of 32 children with life-threatening illnesses who were flown to Lapland to meet Santa and enjoy rides on the snow.

Charlie, of Wyndham Close, Grantham, was diagnosed with anaplastic large cell lymphoma and started a long, gruelling spell of treatment at Queen’s Medical Centre in Nottingham in April, which has now finished.
