While the funds are in dire need for the treatment of Jack and Oliver, several other important variants have taken a hit as well. It has been almost a year since Jack was unable to attend school due to the scarce availability of provisional seats. Thus, to turn around their lives, the brave mom and her sons chose to team up with Autism Together. Leah and her sons completed hiking the Snowdon mountain in June 2023. Now, they are just one shy of their target as they proudly conquered the Scafell Pike, the highest peak in England.
Speaking about their mission and why they chose the hard path of hiking, Leah was more than happy to be enlightened. She stated, “We wanted to inspire others, support those in need, and help people understand that they are not alone. And I wanted to encourage the boys to reach their potential and realize they can achieve absolutely anything.”
Leah and her brave sons have successfully managed to raise £730 until now. They have also accumulated a total of £165 of their new target of £500. However, it must be noted that the expedition could not have been possible without the cooperation of Leah’s three kids. As Leah spoke about her sons, she beamed with pride.

She also reflected on the fact that oftentimes, the road feels a little too stretched, which significantly hampers the morale to strive further. However, in the end, she had the smile of a champion, as Leah found all the hardships worth it.
