Story
PLEASE HELP US TO PROVIDE LEAH WITH THE BEST CARE FOR HER FUTURE
22 year old Leah Birkin is not only a much loved player of Harrogate Ladies Rugby Union Team but also Captained her team at Leeds Beckett University last season, was selected to play County Rugby for Yorkshire and part of the Rugby League squad at Leeds Rhinos.
Sadly last week whilst playing County Rugby for Yorkshire she suffered a terrible injury resulting in a broken back. She has undergone hours of surgery and is currently being cared for at the LGI in Leeds.
Once she starts on the road to recovery she will need speacialist physiotherapy for many weeks which is very expensive and we would really like to help with the cost to provide the best care for her future.
I have received so many messages of support for Leah and those closest to her for which they are very grateful. We hope now that the Rugby Community will pull together and show how much we care when one of our own suffers a serious injury.
If you would like to make a donation to help Leahs recovery it would be very much appreciated.
Thank you

6 years agoTo all the wonderful people who have donated I just wanted to give you an update on Leah’s progress. She has now been discharged from Hospital and pleased to be back at home. I have been to visit her and she was in remarkably good spirits despite everything that’s happened. She will start her physiotherapy in 3 weeks time. She is a real fighter and I hope and pray with everyone’s support she will make a full recovery. PLEASE SHARE this page to enable us to reach our target and get Leah back to full health. THANK YOU X
