Story

I will be running the London Marathon 2018 to raise money for DKMS.

DKMS is a charity who are dedicated to the fight against blood cancer and blood disorders. Their mission is to provide a matching donor for every blood cancer patient in need of a blood stem cell donation.

To make this happen they raise awareness, recruit and retain potential blood stem cell donors to provide a second chance of life, raise funds to match donor registration costs, and improve blood cancer therapies by their own research.

As some of you may be aware my Dad was diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukaemia and has been undergoing cycles of chemotherapy this year. Due to the side effects of this he has had regular blood transfusions to help restore some regularity in his blood levels.

By helping to raise money and awareness for DKMS they will in turn be able to help more and more people who need blood transfusions and stem cell transplants in their fight against cancer and other illnesses.

I have pledged to raise at least £2500 for DKMS so I am asking for your help and sponsorship so I can beat this target!

Any donations are very much appreciated and are going towards a great cause.
