Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

Mum has been battling Multiple Myeloma, a debilitating bone cancer for over two years now with great courage and determination. Doctors, nurses, friends and family have been a great support for her throughout. Mum's strength of purpose and spirit have been a true inspiration to us all. 

 

I am now setting out to complete 3 Marathons (78 miles) in 4 weeks alongside my friends Will Paterson and Charlie Coates.  We start in Rome on 20th March, head to Paris 10th April and finish in Madrid on 17th April.  

 

This is all in a bid to raise money for Macmillian Cancer Trust, who provide practical, medical and financial support and push for better cancer care across the UK.

 

We're also raising money for the wonderful Maggies Cancer Caring Centres over on this Just Giving page. Maggies do amazing work helping cancer patients and their relatives with information, benefits advice, psychological support both individually and in groups, courses and stress reducing strategies.

 

It's a fantastic challenge and your support and money will directly go to people like mum battling cancer across the UK. So please, please, please dig deep and donate now.
