Gemma says that charity work helps her overcome her grief.

She told Sunday People, "It helps me to see other families being treated by Bradley. I do not want them to go through what I did.

Tomorrow, Gemma will be moved by the return of Mother's Day at Wembley Stadium to attend her beloved Sunderland AFC's match in the Checkatrade Trophy Final.

The last time she was on the floor was Mother's Day two years ago, when a beaming Bradley took the English team as a mascot in the World Cup qualifiers alongside Jermain. Defoe, the "best friend" of Sunderland.

Gemma runs the charity on behalf of her son from offices in her hometown of Blackhall Colliery, Co Durham, alongside a team of dedicated workers.



Gemma said that helping other families get treatment was "what Bradley would have liked".

The family had raised money since Bradley's diagnosis at the age of 18 months. They hoped to take it for a pioneering antibody treatment in the United States and collect 1.3 million pounds sterling.

Gemma and Bradley's father, Carl, 35, were heartbroken by their loss. Jermain Defoe broke down at a press conference, claiming that Bradley "would still be in my heart".

In spite of their pain, Bradley's courage and inspiring story has helped raise millions more.

The charity is also planning to build a £ 600,000 vacation home in Scarborough, North York, Scarborough – the seaside resort where Bradley spent one of his last family vacations.

They also plan to run a helpline for families of children with cancer.
