For many people my age, the first world war is just a topic in a history book. But, I've always been fascinated by the subject and think its as relevant today as it ever was with young men all over the world still sacrificing their lives in the name of war."

"I can't even begin to imagine what it must have been like in the trenches, living amongst the stench of death and knowing that at any moment it may be your last. But, I think its important we try to imagine the horrors these young men experienced and to never forget them."

"I am extremely proud to be part of the production of My Boy Jack and only hope I can do justice to the memory of the men who fought and those who died."

Daniel e-mailed a thank you to Page and the readers at danradcliffe.co.uk for raising funds for Demelza House in honour of his birthday. They raised a total of £1,721.83 ($3,228.35) for Dan’s 17th Birthday with their fundraiser Kaleidoscope for Kids which ended on 31st July.

Back then this site didn't excist. I decided to add 'archive news' like this as much as possible. I thought it might be interesting to read for you all.

The message:

Dear Page

Apologies for the delay in sending this but it has been a busy week (as I am sure you know!) A big thank you to you and all my fans who sent me so many kind wishes on my birthday. I had a very quiet day at home and then in the evening traveled to Oxford for a few days filming.

I am once again thrilled that, through your website, so much money has been raised for Demelza House. This is simply fantastic and I thank each and everyone of you for your kindness and generosity. I am delighted that you have decided to make donations to Demelza House rather than sending me
presents. I think the kaleidoscope idea is brilliant and can't wait to see the finished project before it goes to Demelza House.

Thank you once again.

Much love to you all.

DAN
