Story

In March 2023 and just 6 days after her 3rd birthday, our little Willow was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. Her ongoing journey consists of daily, 4 weekly and 12 weekly chemotherapy. Multiple scans, X-rays, weekly blood tests, 100+ cannulas, surgeries and more - so far Willow has received 719 days of gruelling treatment at just 4 years old.

She has coped so well, and has been our absolute rock throughout. She is the most brave, kind, caring, strong and thoughtful little girl we have ever known and even with her loss of mobility she is STILL kicking cancers ass!

The purpose of this page is to raise as much money as possible to support a charity that is very close to our family's heart, Cure Leukaemia.

This is our 3rd year and many more to come raising vital funds for CL - who have recently launched the ATICUS Paediatric Trial Network, the first of its kind in the world!

This pioneering network will support life-saving clinical trials across ten children’s hospitals nationwide. With an annual cost of £1 million to sustain this vital work.

Every 14 minutes, someone in the UK is diagnosed with a form of blood cancer with four children diagnosed every day. Blood cancer is the most common cancer in children and teenagers and can affect children from as young as three months old.

Fundraising Events:

We are kick starting this year’s fundraising by taking on the Birmingham Half Marathon. Willows dad, and 4 of his work friends, Aiden, Joe, Dan and Dean will take this challenge on the 4th May 2025.

The second fundraising event of this year will be the Welsh 3 Peaks Challenge in 24 hours. A team of 15 family and friends of Willow - will take on this self-organised challenge on Saturday 7th June 2025.

Words are not enough to express our appreciation for shares and donations to help us reach our target and beyond - every child deserves the best possible chance of living life to the full and this is what this is all about.

Lots of love - Willow and family❤️
