Perkins Great Eastern Run · 14 October 2018 ·

Campaign by Young Lives vs Cancer (RCN 1107328 and SC039857)
The VCMF is a fund I set up in memory of my dear mum who left a huge hole in all our lives on December 8th 2008 when she lost her short battle with cancer aged just 50. This page is to keep her memory alive whilst supporting others.

Story

So why am I doing this half marathon on the 14th October.....it started off as a way of getting fitter and it’s ended up with me wanting to raise money for CLIC Sargent via the Veronica Claxton Memorial Fund!

You guys that know me, know me and exercise aren’t a match made in heaven, so your support via sponsoring me will be massively encouraging during the hard parts of the training and the half marathon event.

If you are wondering what CLIC Sargent do, please see below:

When cancer strikes young lives CLIC Sargent helps families limit the damage cancer causes beyond their health.

Cancer doesn’t discriminate. Today, 11 more children and young people will hear the devastating news that they have cancer. From diagnosis, CLIC Sargent’s specialist care teams will step in, ready to help, support and guide. They will provide a specialist package of support tailored to each young cancer patient and family.

CLIC Sargent fights tirelessly for children and young people with cancer, often when they feel they can’t. We do this individually, locally and nationally, so that they can focus on the important things, like getting well. And if the worst happens, we will work with bereaved families to get them support, to help them cope with their emotional pain.
