Of Supershoes Ken notes:
Supershoes are laced with hope and provided to children fighting cancer, each pair of shoes are designed specifically for a particular child or young person and hand painted by a Super Artist to express the child and all of the things they like. This could be a favourite game, sports team, music, animals or all of the above! In fact, anything that the child holds dear.
Supershoes are as unique as the child or young person that wears them and act as a reminder to that child of who they are, despite their illness, challenges and treatment. Shoes are hand painted by a dedicated team of over 300 volunteer artists.
