Helen is running the Great North Run and Mia is running in the Mini Great North Run

Help us support a fantastic charity fund new research. Our family and many others have lost loved ones to this terrible disease. My job means I know what an impact research can make on new treatments. Cancer Research UK work to help prevent cancer, diagnose it earlier, develop and optimise new and existing treatments to ensure more people than even before survive cancer.

Helen is supporting Team Sage in the Great North Run. Sage's CEO, Stephen Kelly is running the Great North Run and has set a challenge to raise even more money for charity. He’s throwing down the gauntlet to all members of Team Sage to try and beat his time to the finish line. He’ll donate £2 for every minute that a registered member of Team Sage runs faster than him. Follow the challenge on Twitter: #BeatTheCEO.

Whatever you could afford will make a difference whether it's a £1 or £10.

Thank you so much and I will keep you updated on our progress.
