On Sunday 12th September 2021, I will be running (or walking or crawling) the Great North Run Half Marathon for the charity Jack's journey.

Jack's Journey is a Cumbria based charity which supports local families through childhood cancer. 

A cancer diagnosis is upsetting at any age, but as a Mammy myself I can't even begin to think of anything more upsetting than when that person is a child. 

I can only try to imagine how adjusting to a child’s cancer diagnosis and finding ways to stay strong is challenging for everyone in a family. Therefore, I can't think of a more worthy cause to run my first ever half marathon for. 

As a charity, Jack's Journey provide financial support to families undergoing treatment for cancer and also provide a holiday home, away from the worries of home life free of charge.
