OSCAR Fradgley's parents are overwhelmed by the support they have received after raising £40,000 towards their son's future.

Donations are being made all the time to help Oscar's fund, with a string of events, gigs and individual fundraising.

Most recently Chris and Lisa Fradgley received £5,000 from Kingswinford Snooker Club to help towards their £100,000 target.

Oscar's parents set up a fund for their son's future after he was born were no hands or feet.

The three-year-old suffers with a rare incurable disease which means he has a short tongue and limbs and suffers from heart disease including facial palsy.

Organiser of Oscar Proms, Chris Dunn, is also working hard to raise raffle prizes for the event, which looks set to raise at least £10,000 to help the Kingswinford tot.

Events such as a gig night being held at the Rock Cafe 2000, Stourbridge on Saturday May 5 featuring Nobody's Hero's, The Boy's next Door and the Epics are also planned to coin in the cash.

Also Vile Evils (Ex-band Pop Will Eat Itself) will play a charity gig on Sat June 9 at the Rock Cafe to support the cause.

Mum Lisa said: "We have been doing really well, it's been amazing, we never expected to raise to much money so quickly it's just been wonderful.

"We are just so grateful to the local community for their continued support."

Oscar has just recently recovered from an operation on his hands which he had on Friday March 16 and he has another operation planned for in August.
