On Sat, 20th Sept 2025, a group of students walked for approximately 10 hours in terrible weather conditions to Southport.  The walk was to raise funds for an ex-student, Josh Abbott-Littler who sadly lost his life to cancer in 2025.  Congratulations and well done to everyone who took part - what an amazing achievement!

Josh's family have created a Just Giving Page in his memory Rebecca Hughes is fundraising for Young Lives vs Cancer

"In loving memory of Josh Abbott-Littler who sadly lost his fight on 26/06/2025. Josh was student at Lancaster University, earning a place after receiving exceptional results in his GCSE’s and A Levels. He was a brilliant big brother to Fred and Bobby and had a real love for gaming and music. He played guitar and sang, travelling to gigs as often as he could.

Josh was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma during his first year of university and had chemotherapy and proton beam therapy at the Christie. Josh went into remission and rang the bell in May 2024 and finished his first year at university. Josh then fell ill during his second year at university, he was diagnosed with leukaemia and due to contracting an infection during his stay in hospital, Josh sadly passed away.

 

Josh never complained and took it all in his stride with a smile on his face. Josh will be truly missed by all his friends and family."
