Brighton Marathon 2019 · 14 April 2019 ·

Eva’s Angels is a charity lovingly dedicated to our beautiful five year old daughter Eva Giles who lost her battle to Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) a rare childhood brainstem tumour, in April 2017. Eva’s Angels provides short breaks in a caravan in Whitstable, Kent, to families who are affected by childhood cancer. Families can enjoy a short holiday by the sea to escape daily life, and hospital appointments. We will also target promising brain tumour research projects to fund as we grow.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In April 2016 we heard the words that no parent should ever have to hear...that our beautiful, vibrant 4 year old daughter had cancer.  Not just cancer, but a type of brain tumour that no one has ever survived.  Only 2 weeks before we had been planning her 5th birthday party, and now we were being told that we would lose her within a year. On 7th April 2017 we said our goodbyes, and our hearts shattered into a million pieces.

Eva continues to live on through the charity Eva's Angels.  We offer holidays to families affected by childhood cancer.  By getting away from hospitals and doctors for a few days by the sea, allows families to reconnect and enjoy some family time together.  We are fundraising for a second holiday home so we can reach out to more families in 2019.  Please help us help them! 

On 14th April 2019 a team of us will be running 26.2 miles for Eva....myself included! If Eva can still smile everyday through her battle, then I can run a marathon.
