HARRY MOSELEY, the 11-year-old who inspired thousands with his selfless battle against a brain tumour, has died.
A message placed on Harry's Twitter account early this morning read: "My brave inspirational boy fell asleep in my arms at 11.10pm. Suddenly our world is a very dark and cruel place."
Harry, from Sheldon, had been in a coma at Birmingham Children's Hospital since August 10 after the tumour grew by 50 per cent and he underwent major brain surgery.
Despite suffering with the tumour for four years, Harry has always focussed on helping others.
The pupil at Blakenhale Junior School, in Garretts Green, made and sold handmade bracelets to raise more than £500,000 for Cancer Research UK.
It earned Harry the title of Britain’s Kindest Kid and the admiration of a horde of celebrity fans including Gary Lineker, John Terry and Ben Shepherd. Prime Minister David Cameron has also been seen sporting one of the bracelets.
Dragon’s Den tycoon Duncan Bannatyne also visited Harry in hospital.
Harry's family have indicated the work done by Help Harry Help Others will continue.
A Tweet posted on his account this morning read: "Thank you for all the messages of support at this just dreadful time. Harry loved his twitfam [Twitter Family] so much and brightening your days. What he started and worked so hard on will continue. Harry spent last night with use before he leaves home at 11am. Simply heartbroken xx."
