Josh's brave battle inspired me - Luke
Derby Telegraph
|November 26, 2025
DARTS Luke Littler said he was “inspired” by a superfan who fell in love with darts during a serious battle with meningitis.
-
Littler got in touch with 10-year-old Josh Billingham, who was hospitalised with a bout of the viral disease at the end of 2023.
His stint in hospital coincided with Littler's rise to prominence and Billingham, from Halesowen in the West Midlands, became a superfan.
Littler (pictured) read about his story online and made the child's dream come true after inviting him to the draw for the World Championship in London on Monday.
The 18-year-old presented Billingham, who has made a full recovery, with a signed shirt and also threw some darts with him.
