Anyone who knows Tilly knows the incredible strength and determination she shows every single day. At just 14 years old, she manages the daily challenges of Type 1 Diabetes, constantly monitoring her blood sugars and taking insulin — yet never letting it slow her down.

On the 13th of July , in scorching temperatures, Tilly earned her place as first reserve for the Great British Laser Run Team.

What makes this even more impressive? Tilly trains every single week, often daily, with no sponsorships, driven purely by her passion, dedication, and grit.

Now, she’s aiming for the World Championships in South Africa this December — a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity — but as you can imagine, the costs are high (travel, accommodation, gear, etc).

We’re reaching out to local businesses, community members, and generous supporters to help this incredible young athlete take the next step towards her dream. Any help — whether through sponsorship, donations, or simply sharing this post — would mean the world.

Lets get her to South Africa!
