    Story

    Mike Down and Jenny Webb will be running the Stafford half marathon to raise money for Riley Dean Clay. Riley is the grandson of one of our Foster carers, here is what he had to say on why his grandson needs your help:

    “Our grandson Riley (aged 1), one of our daughters triplets, has been diagnosed with a very rare form of Cancer; extra Renal Rhabdoid. I’m afraid this is a very aggressive cancer that is very difficult not only to treat due to its location, but also in general due to its aggressive nature.
    Riley has to undergo regular chemotherapy, which has you can imagine is so much for his little body to deal with and as a result he has had to fight a number of other illnesses alongside (phenomena, bronchitis, sickness bugs). The good news is that the tumour appears to be reducing; however for full recovery Riley will require Proton therapy.

    Due to the rarity of this cancer the treatment is not available in the UK at this time; we have identified the relevant treatment in Germany or America. Of course all of this comes at a cost hence why we are raising money.

    Any donation is so greatly appreciated. You can follow Riley’s story at:

    Thanks again,
    Dean (Riley’s Grandad) & family”
