About Ruby & the Campaign
Ruby Fuller died of T-cell leukaemia on 15 May 2020, aged just 18. Before she died she asked that, in her memory, her family and friends raise funds for research into more effective and kinder cures for blood cancer. She also asked to be remembered by the motto 'Live Kindly Live Loudly'; she believed kindness is more important than anything, and the 'loudly' bit is about calling out injustice and standing up for what you believe in. We raise funds through selling merchandise that features her logo - and would love some new designs to use. Blood cancer kills around 150 children and young people each year in the UK and we want to change that. So we've set up the Ruby 'Live Kindly Live Loudly' fund with the charity Childrens Cancer & Leukaemia Group with a goal of raising £500,000 for research (roughly how much the NHS spent trying to save her). So far we've raised over £130k.
Ruby's story has featured in the media in recent months around the #Partygate scandal, as she died on the day of the infamous Number 10 'cheese & wine' party. This has included CNN, Sky News, BBC Woman's Hour and Panorama. People have really responded to her motto and we'd love to capitalise on the interest by producing some more products that people can buy to raise money for her fund.
