Joining Harry and the other children at the party were special guests Starlight ambassadors Blue Peter presenter Lindsey Russell and actor Tom Chambers.
Harry’s mum, Johanna, said: “Harry was so excited when we were invited to Starlight’s Easter party. It gave us something to look forward to in the holidays and the chance to experience something special that no-one else can do.
We’ve had a wonderful day and we’re so grateful to Starlight for everything they do. It really does give all the kids and their parents a welcome break from hospitals and everyday routines.”
