On November 11th 2020, beautiful Mia Hankins at just 6 years of age was diagnosed suddenly with a brain tumour. She received an operation on the 20th November to remove it but despite the best efforts of the amazing staff at Southampton Hospital, Mia stayed sleeping and passed away on the 21st November 2020.

This brave and beautiful girl, loved so dearly by all who knew her, was able to prolong the lives of 3 others in need through organ donation. A testament to her caring and amazing character.
She was, and always will be, a cherished daughter, granddaughter, great granddaughter, niece, cousin and friend. 💜

We are planning a memorial ride on the 18th July 2021 to honour beautiful Mia and raise money for a very worth cause.

The charity this ride is supporting is very close to the heart’s of Mia’s family. Brain Tumour Research work tirelessly to increase survival rates, improve the quality of life for those diagnosed, and most importantly hope to find a cure.

Ride participants will be given a purple ribbon at the start point to be attached to the bikes as a show of support to the cause and to the memory of Mia.

As ever all donations are gratefully received. 

The ride Facebook event is detailed within this link
