Event: Little Isla’s 10k Trundle for Big Isla 🦄💖
In memory of Isla Tansey
In memory of Isla and what would have been her 10th birthday on the 01/05/2021, lets see if we can fundraise £10,000 together throughout May, united against Childhood cancer. Do a sponsored 10k run, do 10k steps a day, hula hoop for 10mins a day.

Story

Little Isla will be walking 10k over the weekend of 29th/30th May in fancy dress to try and raise some pennies for her friend “big” Isla who would of celebrated her 10th Birthday on 1st May. Islastones are currently hosting a £10k in May challenge. 

This will be a challenge for Isla as she’s currently being investigated for Ehlers Danlos Syndrome so walking any great distance can be difficult but Isla wants to do it! 

Of course, Mummy will be joining in too! 

Please help me raise some pennies towards #£10KinMay. 

Isla’s story is below- 

Isla Tansey, a 7-year old girl, started a phenomenal worldwide stone decorating movement in April 2018, called #islastones.Isla was diagnosed with a rare type of brain tumour, DIPG (Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma) and sent home with only weeks to live. Isla began decorating stones for her friends to hide and very quickly her community grew to over 60,000 worldwide. Despite experiencing considerable pain, Isla enjoyed to see where each of the stones ended up and to see the smiles of her many followers! Sadly Isla passed away on 10 July 2018.#Islastones Foundation is her legacy set up to fund childhood cancer research and support families affected by childhood cancer.We hope you can help make it grow too so that we can use it to raise money and awareness of DIPG and childhood cancer, in the hope of supporting other families that will have to endure what Islas did. We want them to know they are not alone.Above all, though, we hope its a little reminder of the fun and happiness
