An anonymous donor has given £10,500 to the family of the six-year-old boy thrown from the Tate Modern balcony by Jonty Bravery in 2019. The donation was made to a fundraising page set up to support the boy's recovery.
The boy, who is French, suffered life-changing injuries including a bleed on the brain and multiple broken bones after falling 100ft (30 metres) from the 10th-floor viewing platform. He survived the fall but requires ongoing medical care.
Bravery, 24, was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 15 years for attempted murder. He is being held at Broadmoor high-security psychiatric hospital in Berkshire.
In a separate incident, Bravery was given a 16-week jail sentence for assaulting two nurses at Broadmoor in September 2024. He kicked one nurse in the thigh and clawed at another's face, leaving her with blood dripping down her cheek.
The anonymous donor's contribution brings the total raised to over £50,000, which will be used to fund the boy's rehabilitation and support his family.
