Daniel's single, which he recorded with Tori Beaumont for Disney, has been released to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children.
GOSH is the world's leading children's hospital located in London, United Kingdom. It has the widest range of children's specialists of any UK hospital, and is the largest centre for children's heart or brain surgery, or children with cancer, in the UK.
In April 1929 the hospital was the recipient of playwright J. M. Barrie's copyright to the Peter Pan works, with the provision that the income from this source not be disclosed. This gave the institution control of the rights to these works, and entitled it to royalties from any performance or publication of the play and derivative works.
Our Peter Pan (Daniel) is donating 25% of all sales to this great charity, so show your support by buying the new single.
