Katy Perry sent terminally ill teenager a message following social media campaign
Members of an Island charity have spoken of their pride after a pop star sent a terminally ill teenager a message.
Katy Perry contacted 13-year-old Sophie Birtles following a social media campaign.
Sophie, who suffers from a rare genetic condition, is being cared for at Rebecca House as her health deteriorates.
