Hugh was just three years old when his dad died from a brain tumour. In this episode, Bijoux sits down with him to explore what Christmas has looked like since - from navigating the holidays while grieving, to growing up without traditional celebrations, to how his relationship with Christmas has changed over time.
Edward was 10 when his mum Selina died of breast cancer. For his dad David, Kenzie's Gift provided a 'safe pair of hands' to support Ed at a time when they were tackling the hardest questions about how to live with profound grief and loss.
I was heartbroken by the news that Nigel Latta, our incredible ambassador and friend, died on 30th September 2025. Nigel wasn’t just a figurehead for Kenzie’s Gift—he genuinely cared about tamariki and mātātahi, passionately supporting our work to help them cope when faced with serious illness or grief.
Kenzie's Gift is a registered charity under the Charities Act 2005 (CC21425)
