Gemma Lowery Slams Sick Mockery
Bradley’s mum, Gemma Lowery, slammed the vile act and thanked South Yorkshire Police and Sheffield Wednesday for their quick action. In a heartfelt statement, she declared that childhood cancer is no laughing matter.
“I hope that this is a lesson to everyone that childhood cancer is no joke,” Gemma said. She urged fans to remember Bradley’s courage over six tough years instead of focusing on the actions of a hateful few.
Support Floods In for Bradley
The sick stunt hasn’t dampened spirits. Sheffield Wednesday supporters have rallied behind Bradley’s memory, launching a fundraiser that’s already pulled in over £18,000 for The Bradley Lowery Foundation.
Gemma expressed her gratitude for the incredible kindness, determined to move past the incident and keep pushing the foundation’s vital work forward.
