I wanted to let you know that the Hannah’s Willberry Wonder Pony Charity stand will be at Southfield from 1:30 today, with a broad range of Willberry’s goodies for sale.
Many of you know the special connection between Hannah Francis, founder of the charity, and Wylye. Hannah was a long-term member of Wylye and a much-loved young instructor and founded her charity in 2016 after being diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer, osteosarcoma. Hannah wanted to fund research into this dreadful disease (Willberry’s Research) and provide equine experiences to seriously ill people and their families (Willberry’s Wishes). She was determined to help others in the future and tragically lost her fight in August 2016, aged just 18 years old. Her charity has since raised more than £2 million and is run entirely by volunteers.
Hannah’s grandmother, June, will be bringing the stand today so please welcome her and help Hannah’ charity by treating yourself to a Willberry pony or one of many fabulous things.
