Wolverhampton's River up for bravery award

River Rhodes, 8, from Wolverhampton who was diagnosed with a brain tumour 18 months ago had to undergo chemo and radiotherapy.

Despite that, he’s kept smiling and it hasn’t kept him away from his love of football.

Along the way, River has met footballer superstars like Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi and we went to meet him and his family at his football training session in Walsall.

River is a finalist in our ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Make A Difference Awards for the Bravery category.
