As many of you may know early 2009 was a difficult time for Oliver Miller-Jones. He developed a large, and continually growing, lump on the side of his head which was ultimately diagnosed as a rare type of tumour (a Lypoblastoma). Eventually he ended up in the excellent care of the people at Great Ormond Street who removed the tumour and put him on the path to recovery.

To show our gratitude we have signed up to take part in the 2010 Blenheim triathlon on Saturday 5th June as a relay team. Our close friend Jo has agreed to take the plunge in Blenheim lake (750m), Chris will be cycling (20km) and Cass will be running (5km). Oliver will be part of the support crew! We would like to raise as much money as we possibly can for the hospital so that they can continue to help families in the same way that they helped us.
