Laoise Leahy

A person whose story would inspire anyone...

I first came to know of Imogen and her beyond-impressive achievements through my cousin Megan. Quickly enough I learned about her beyond impressive achievements. Her journey in recovering from a near fatal crash, that almost ended her professional cycling career, is one which would inspire anyone.

An absolute lady, it was an enjoyable experience to make this ‘Home Is Where The Heart Is’ Slip Necklace for Imogen.

With a slight edit, the little heart was placed over her home county, Clare and two poignant dates were engraved on the reverse - her birth date and what she now marks as her re-birth date.

A true champion, it is an absolute pleasure to see By Leahy worn by Imogen Cotter (@imogencotter on instagram).
