On this year's tractor run, keep a lookout for the pink tractor. This tractor is to remember local Ellesmere girl Ella McCreadie who sadly died at the age of just 13 years of age.
Ella was a loving big sister to her two brothers, Shay and Niall who were seven and 10 respectively when she died and was a much-cherished daughter to Sophie and her dad Alastair. She was a very active, healthy teenager who loved riding her horse, Bliss, and had a wide circle of friends.
It was found that she was suffering from an undiagnosed high-grade diffuse glioma . This is an aggressive, malignant brain tumor that grows quickly and infiltrates surrounding healthy tissue that had taken her young life.
Spokesman, Mike Lade, said, “The run is being organised with the Whittington and Oswestry Young Farmers
