Oliver Archer spent the first week of his life in the neonatal unit at West Suffolk Hospital after suffering a stroke at birth. Despite this difficult start in life, he has gone on to amaze his parents Liz and James and four-year-old sister Mia with the recovery he has made and was signed off by the hospital after his first birthday.

His parents have decided to raise money for the hospital and the Stroke Association through the sale of “Oliver’s Kitchen”, a bright, family-friendly cookbook. Written from one-year-old Oliver’s perspective, it celebrates simple home cooking while also telling Oliver’s story and charting his recovery.

Along with vital funding, Oliver’s family hope the book will raise awareness of childhood stroke and where to go for help while also encouraging other families to venture into the kitchen and find enjoyment in cooking.

Oliver’s Kitchen is priced at £9.99, with all the profit split 75 – 25 between the hospital and Stroke Association.
