Story

Isla Tansey, a 7-year old girl from Hinckley, she was diagnosed with DIPG in October 2017. She & her family started a phenomenal worldwide stone decorating movement called #Islastones in March 2018. which brings communities together worldwide.Sadly, Isla passed away on 10 July 2018. Isla’s family wants to share and raise awareness of this untreatable childhood cancer as there is very little funding into this area of research despite 80% of cases of cases of all brain tumours being in children between the ages of 5-9 years. I met with Isla’s parents through charity work I was doing. This year in November I will be competing in The UK Young European Miss International pageant representing Leicestershire. I was very touched my Isla’s story and so I chose Childhood cancer DIPG for my personal platform to work on. My aim is to work hard to raise awareness and fundraise for Islastones foundation. Please support me on my journey. Let’s do this for all the children who we have sadly lost their lives and for the little ones who are fighting their battle right now. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Freya, your Young European International Teen Miss Leicestershire xxx
