Isla's Story

Wakefield Trinity X is pleased to be hosting a Dance-A-Thon to support the children's cancer charity, Candlelighters, in memory of former DanceXplosion participant, Isla Greenwood.

Isla was a vibrant, beautiful little girl who certainly lived life to its fullest in her short eight years, however, despite fighting a valiant battle, the challenges she faced weren’t going to stop this amazing little girl from having fun.

Candlelighters supported Isla and her family (Rachel, Matt and little Max) by providing her with the best experiences. Watching Isla have the most amazing time whilst having chemotherapy was so inspiring to all that knew her. She was the true definition of a ‘Warrior.'

Isla would finish chemo on a Tuesday and rush straight to DanceXplosion to be with her friends and do what she loved most…. DANCING!

As a Club & Foundation, we want to unite and raise as much as possible for this amazing cause and show our appreciation for what they did for our special Isla G.

Isla would have loved this Dance-A-Thon and we know she will be there with us, dancing along in her rainbow tutu.

Please help us support this charity to help other families just like Isla, Rachel, Matt and Max.
