The touching story of a mute and deaf boy - Festive Big Favour

Loading player...
We have been asking you to nominate a child that needs to have their spirit lifted, and the nominations have been coming in. We have met a bubbly young girl who was nominated by her sister, a 12-year-old whose mother wanted to thank her for being supportive during her miscarriage and more amazing children.

This week, we meet Jose Liam Veeram who was nominated by his mother, Yvonne. The mother of the six-year-old boy who is unable to hear or speak wants nothing more than to put a smile on her son's face. With 2020 being such a difficult year, Yvonne says that they were affected financially as well.
