September 16, 2025

HOLLYWOOD star and Wrexham co-owner Ryan Reynolds has stunned fundraisers with a huge donation.

- OWEN HUGHES

Wrexham Police FC are raising money for Lexi Collins, a 13-year-old from Deeside, who is battling a rare and aggressive cancer of the heart.

In the past few months she's endured two open-heart surgeries, had a pacemaker fitted, and is now undergoing intensive chemotherapy.

Her biggest wish is to visit New York when she’s well enough.

Her family are trying to raise £20,000 to make that dream a reality.
