Story
On Sunday 12th November 2023, our lives changed forever. Our bubbly, kind, funny & beautiful cousin Alicia was ripped from our lives far too soon at just 34 years old.
Alicia had a short battle with an extremely rare illness called HLH. There is little out there about HLH with many of us that have never even heard of it.
On Sunday 22nd September 2024, myself and my brother Jacob, will be running the Richmond Half Marathon in memory of our Leesh. For those that know me, know this is totally out of my comfort zone but if losing Leesh has taught us anything… LIFE IS TOO SHORT. Push yourselves, chase after your dreams and never take a single day for granted.
As well as our Half Marathon, Alicia’s Uncle Dave, will be walking the 84 miles along Hadrian’s Wall in March. He is aiming to do the walk in 6 days and spread awareness of HLH and Alicia’s story as he goes.
Please help us get HLH heard and raise some money to help fight this awful disease!
We’re doing this for you Leesh💚
