My story

As you may be aware this year I am running the Rotterdam marathon on April the 13th to raise money for Jacob Marsland. Jacob has a rare form of cancer called neuroblastoma, which needs specialist treatment. Despite undergoing intensive chemotherapy Jacob has not responded to his treatment in the UK, and may soon need to receive pioneering treatment in the USA. Jacob’s family are trying desperately to raise funds for his future treatment as this will cost a minimum of £250,000 and may now be his only chance of survival.

Please sponsor me through this website. 

I have done one previous Marathon in 2002 and managed a respectable 4hours 36minutes – however I am looking to beat this time.

The 2Simple Trust helps families of children suffering from neuroblastoma.

This work will shortly be transferred to a new charity set up specifically for the purpose and called The Neuroblastoma Children’s Cancer Alliance.
