Sumner Malik, one of a triplet and one of the brightest and bubbliest young squash players alive, has been diagnosed with a Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG). DIPG is a terminal, paediatric form of brain tumour.

There are only 40 cases of DIPG diagnosed a year in the UK but every one of those is a tragedy with no confirmed cure and a non-existent survival rate.

There is hope out there though with lots of doctors and hospitals around the world carrying out pioneering research into ways of treating this disease, with a few offering cutting edge treatments on compassionate grounds. These treatments though are unfortunately very expensive and every bit of help is needed to meet the costs.

I'm Alex Clark and live just up the road from Sumner and want to help all I can. I'm cycling from London to Brighton on Sunday 17th June. It's a total of 87km and I'm currently cycling 80km (02.06.18).

(Note: as it's an event hosted by the BHF a small percentage must be donated to them)

Please give all that you can.
