Ruby’s Three Peaks Challenge for Stargardt's Connected
Ruby in action of our u15 Girls
At the end of May, the Davis family - Alan, Rachael and Ruby - are taking on the Three Peaks Challenge to raise awareness and vital funds for research into Stargardt’s Disease, a rare inherited eye condition that causes central vision loss.
This cause means a great deal to us. Ruby, age 13, lives with Stargardt’s every day - and her determination shines through in everything she does, including continuing to be a key part of our U15 girls’ team. She’s a dynamic midfielder, a very popular teammate, and has shown amazing resilience to keep playing since her diagnosis, continuing to perform brilliantly on the pitch.
By climbing the highest peaks in England, Scotland and Wales, the family hope to shine a light on Stargardt’s and help fund research, support and hope for the future - as there is currently no treatment or cure.
For Ruby, this challenge represents resilience, determination and refusing to be defined by her diagnosis. Every step is for her - and for everyone affected by Stargardt’s Disease.
We’d love the Eagles family to show their support for our inspirational Ruby and to get behind the Davis family as they take on this incredible challenge. Every message of encouragement and every bit of support means a huge amount.
