Zahra’s Hadleigh-to-Bedford-and-Back Challenge Steven Henly died of a rare form of cancer in July 2008, just a few weeks after his 21st birthday. Steven attended Layham Playgroup, St Mary’s CEVA School and Hadleigh High School. He developed an interest in sport at an early age, and at various times he attended the Hadleigh Swimming Club, junior teams at Hadleigh United, and coaching at the Hadleigh Tennis Club.

Zahra and Bob believe that this prize will be a wholly appropriate tribute to Steven. Zahra and Bob are going to be raising funds to help establish the viability of the prize for the long-term future. This will include a number of events based around the Leisure Centre, where Steven is fondly remembered and where Zahra still works as a Duty Officer.
