Hawks Rally Support for Brave Toddler Battling Incurable Brain Cancer
BRAVE ELY
In a heartwarming display of unity and community spirit, the Sheffield Hawks, a prominent junior rugby league club based in Hillsborough, has launched a fundraising campaign to support the courageous young Ely, who is currently battling incurable brain cancer. The Sheffield Hawks are rallying together to help raise funds for the 3-year-old and his family, with the aim of creating precious memories during this challenging time. Ely's journey has touched the hearts of many within the Sheffield Hawks community. Despite his tender age, he's already made an indelible mark on the club. Ely's older brother proudly plays for the Sheffield Hawks U9 team, while this year marked Ely's introduction to the Little Hawks team, where he
has been embraced by the club's youngest members and their families.
The Hawks' fundraising efforts are directed towards providing muchneeded support and assistance to Ely's family as they navigate the difficulties posed by his medical condition. The club has set up a Just Giving page named 'Ely's Army,' where individuals can contribute. Club spokesperson, Sarah Johnson, expressed the club's unwavering support for Ely and his family. "Ely and his family are an integral part of our Sheffield Hawks community. We want to stand by them during this challenging journey and help create cherished memories that will last a lifetime." Ely's love for rugby and the Sheffield Hawks is deeply rooted in his
family's history. Not only are they dedicated Sheffield Hawks parents, but they also share a passion for the Sheffield Eagles, a testament to their strong bond with the sport. Ely's mother, who is part of this close-knit community, has even played rugby herself, showcasing their deep connection to the game. The Sheffield Hawks are calling on their extended rugby family, the local community, and anyone touched by Ely's story to lend their support. Donations made to 'Ely's Army' will go a long way in helping Ely and his family find strength and joy in the face of adversity. To donate: www.justgiving.com/ crowdfunding/ElysArmy

APPEAL:
Witnesses and dashcam sought following collision
Police are appealing for witnesses, dashcam and information following a road traffic collision in Sheffield that has left a cyclist in a lifethreatening condition. On Friday night 29 September at 6pm police officers attended Rivelin Valley Road, between Hollins Lane and Hagg Hill for reports of a collision involving a car and a pedal cyclist. A white-coloured Mazda 3 was travelling towards Sheffield when it collided with a cyclist travelling in the opposite direction. The victim, a 55-year-old man was taken to hospital with serious injuries and remains in a life-threatening condition. The driver of the Mazda, a 31-year-old man is assisting officers with their enquiries. We’re keen to hear from anyone who witnessed the collision or may have dashcam footage of the Mazda prior to the collision, between the junction of Manchester Road and Malinbridge. If you believe you can help, get in touch with Police.
