All this week, we've been meeting our incredible @PrideOfBritain finalists - and tonight I had the honour of revealing Amanda & Jon as our winners. Being able to deliver such good news to people who are so deserving is the best feeling. I'll never take it for granted. ❤️

@YLvsCancer The third nominees were the inspirational Amanda and Jon Sheehy.
They lost their daughter at the age of just 8 but founded @AmbersArmyCIO in her honour - helping to make memories for other families who have a child with terminal cancer:

Remember when we clapped for Amber? 👏
We need everybody’s help now to clap on the 12th minute at the Tottenham game this weekend.
Ronnie sadly passed away on Monday only a few days after his 12th Birthday and was a big Tottenham fan.

September was a difficult month for us to choose just one charity to highlight, so instead, we will feature a different charity each week throughout the month.
Why was it so difficult? Well, simply because this month features two words that should never be associated together, Childhood Cancer Awareness.
The aim for this month is for us to raise awareness by not only sharing some of the scary statistics that surround this horrible disease but also the stories behind some of our local charities that help not only with grants and information but also listen because they know firsthand what parents are going through.
Our first charity we are shining a spotlight on this month is @AmbersArmyCIO 🦄
Amber’s Army is a Norfolk-based family charity, aiming to ‘Create Rainbows in the Darkest of Days’ for Norfolk families who have a child with a terminal cancer diagnosis. The charity was established in 2023 by the parents of Amber Sheehy, Jon & Amanda, in their daughter’s memory.
Leathes Prior is proud to be sponsoring Amber’s Army not just once but twice during September, the first of which is with sponsorship for Run Norwich 2024. We have a brilliant team of runners taking part on Sunday, so please do consider donating to Amber's Army via our Just Giving page: justgiving.com/page/leathes-p…
