Tony Hudgell

Brave Tony, 9, to receive New Year Honour More than 20 people from Kent have been recognised by King Charles III for their work – including a nine-year-old double amputee.

Tony Hudgell, a remarkable nine-year-old boy, is set to receive a New Year Honour for his incredible bravery. Despite facing immense challenges, Tony has shown remarkable resilience and determination. Born with no legs and severe injuries to his arms, Tony has not let his disabilities define him. He has inspired countless people with his positive attitude and unwavering spirit.

Despite his young age, Tony has already achieved so much. He raised over £1.5 million for the Evelina London Children's Hospital by walking 10 kilometers using his prosthetic legs. His incredible feat captured the hearts of people worldwide, and his story has become an inspiration to many. Tony's courage and determination make him a deserving recipient of the New Year Honour.
