Raising money for

Royal Marsden Cancer Campaign

Charity Registration No. 1095197

At the Royal Marsden, we're not afraid of cancer. We learn about it, talk about and most of all, use cutting-edge techniques to treat it. We're doing everything we can to help improve our patients' survival rates - whether it's new drug therapies, or better equipment or facilities. But researching and treating cancer is a lifetime's work. And that's why we need your help. A gift to the Royal Marsden will go to work immediately, helping the 40,000 people who come to us every year. Simply donate today and we'll do the rest.

My story

>>> Keep track of our progress on our blog!

Here's the deal: Dan and I will cycle about 1,000 miles from one end of the country to the other (Lands End to John o' Groats), sleeping in tents and almost certainly aching in places we don't yet even know exist. Why, you may ask, would any sane individual do this?

The Royal Marsden Hospital does amazing work for children with cancer, a topic that has become very close to my heart in recent times. "Life-saving", on this occasion, is no exaggeration. Dan and I would like to earn them a few pennies because my contact on the inside tells me that, brilliant as they are, they could use the cash. Who could put a price on a life?

Thank you, everybody, in advance.

-Will and Dan.
