Delyth Raffell and family run a charity supporting disadvantaged children in the North East of England, inspired by her late daughter Ellen.

Delyth鈥檚 story is part of Radio 2鈥檚 21st Century Folk, where singers write brand new songs about real people from the North East of England.

Ellen tragically lost her life after an allergic reaction at age 16. Mum Delyth and the Raffell family are inspired by their daughter鈥檚 memory to support other children in their region.

Singer-songwriter Thea Gilmore meets Delyth to hear about her extraordinary daughter, and the pain and purpose that inspires the charity called Ellen鈥檚 Gift of Hope.

Thea Gilmore is from Oxfordshire. She released her debut album in 1998 at the age of 18. Her latest full-length album, The Emancipation of Eva Gray, was released in 2021 in parallel with Afterlight, a new album and distinct new stage name. Thea鈥檚 latest EP, Was, came out in October 2022.

21st Century Folk is inspired by the classic 成人快手 Radio Ballads. It sees five real listeners have songs written about their lives.
