December 2025 – Shining a Light This Christmas

It was only months after Larissa’s passing that her family learned the heartbreaking cause of her death — leukaemia.

Larissa was never given the chance to fight this devastating disease. Sadly, many babies and young children do — spending Christmas in hospital instead of at home.

In December 25, The Larissa Foundation decided to shine a little light on those children and their families by sending special Christmas gifts to bring them some comfort and joy during such a difficult time.

They raised over £1,000, used to buy gifts for the brave children spending Christmas on wards 18 and 19 at Waterfall House, Birmingham Children’s Hospital.

Every donation, big or small, helped to spread kindness and keep Larissa’s memory shining bright. 💜
