Story

My Hero & the man I am lucky enough to call my Dad, John Leeming, passed away on 23rd January this year after battling with Glioblastoma, a fast growing & aggressive brain tumour. He fought so hard for 9 months before he fell asleep for the final time with our family at his bedside. He meant everything to us. He meant everything to me. To put it simply, he was a really good man. To me, the best ❤️ 

The love & support we received whilst my Dad was ill & since he passed has been unbelievable. It’s meant the world to the family & has really helped. We’ve also been overwhelmed by all the cards & flowers that have been sent to us. We know a lot of very good people. It’s felt like a reflection of how great a man he was x 

I know times are hard for everyone at the moment financially but I figured if I’m gonna put myself through 26 miles of pain I may as well try & raise some money whilst I’m at it. In true Leeming fashion I’ve left it late but if you’re feeling generous & can spare anything at all I’d be very grateful. Thank you.

Live Forever Dad x
