Story

The official statement is below and more important than whatever I can put, but I'll go 1st.

Lily was mine & Sam's daughter, Poppys, 1st friend. The 1st person she spoke about, the 1st person she called 'friend', the 1st person we heard from the childminder that she was playing with, The 1st friend we saw her play with, wait in the morning to turn up and wave goodbye at the end of the day.

My 1st and probably only skydive, am I nervous - absolutely not and ONLY because the strength this girl (& family) showed during the illness and even now, is far greater than any nerves I could have doing something in Lilys memory.

Please give what you can. There is no better cause.

OFFICIAL.

Lily's Rainbow Fund was set up in 2023 in memory of 4-year-old Lily Harley from Louth, near Grimsby.

Lily was a ray of sunshine bringing colour to the lives of everyone she met, which is why a rainbow is the symbol we remember her by.

She was so positive and loving even as she went through harsh treatments that ultimately did not save her. To the very end she was smiling, laughing, chatting and giving cuddles.

Working with OSCAR's Paediatric Brain Tumour Charity, we hope to raise money to help other children with brain tumours and their families. We also hope to raise awareness of the signs and symptoms so that earlier diagnosis can be made.

Although Lily’s time on earth ended far too soon, it has had an impact on so many. The happiness and love that she spread spoke volumes and she was a blessing. We hope that her life and legacy continue to be impactful and we will strive to make a difference to others faced with our situation.
