Story

Myself and Isla’s wonderful mum Katherine are going to do a 10 mile cycle around the outer edge of Hinckley wearing all gold literally!! We have already tried our amazing gold suits and we can assure you that they aren’t the most comfortable but we remember the reason we’re doing this and that is to raise money and smiles in Isla’s memory. Please give if you can 🎗

The ride will take place on September 26th (time to be confirmed) we will let people know the route so you are welcome to cheer us on as we cycle, our finishing point will be At Isla’s stone in the mead 🎗


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.
