Leila Bennadi from West London is a successful elite gymnast with Heathrow Gymnastics Club.
Sadly, Leila has recently been diagnosed with severe Scoliosis, which if not treated, will not only end her career as a gymnast , but would be life changing.

She needs a new treatment called Vertebral Body Tethering (VBT) which is not available in the U.K.
