Life is precious, when I heard Sacha's story from my partner who is a close friend of their family, it became very real, very quickly to me having 2 young children of my own. 

Vincent Gauci has done an incredible job in supporting the charity and when we saw that he was looking for people to support World Child Cancer charity I could not help but get involved. 

Now, putting my cards on the table. I do have a level of fitness but for those that know me, running 22Km through the middle of London is not my idea of fun!  I much prefer 10K fun runs with lots of mud but it is my opinion that if you are going to raise money for charity you need to go outside your comfort zone.

However perspective is everything, if you choose to donate this is what you will be providing for a child with cancer: 

• £5 buys nutritional suppoert of 5 children and their families during treatment in Cameroon
• £10 pays for a week's worth of pain relief medication for 4 children in Malawi
• £25 funds accurate diagnosis for 10 children in Bangladesh
• £50 pays for life-saving chemotherapy for a child in Ghana
• £150 pays for a play worker in Myanmar for 6 months
• £500 funds the treatment of a child with Burkitt lymphoma in Malawi
  
  

So there it is, I am going to give it my all. The training has started and and the charity team are very grateful for any donation you choose to give.

Many thanks and best wishes,

Matt
