Story

This will be the first time in my life I have run any distance before, a challenge that I look forward to for two very special reasons. I am running at this stage in my life with my lovely daughter Serena, in memory of my late beloved son Simon who died aged 10 with an aggressive form of leukaemia twenty four years ago in 1990. I am also running for another reason; to celebrate Leukaemia Busters 25th anniversary whose name and logo were devised by Simon and under which banner we now conduct our life saving research.

I hope that this run will also help me to appreciate even more the big efforts that many people have in the past and continue to make in raising money for Leukaemia Busters. To them I say one almighty thank you. I also want to thank everybody who has supported me in this effort from my husband, my daughters, friends and family and to my running coach and fellow runners in my club.

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page and for your much appreciated support.

Leukaemia Busters is a UK-registered medical research charity with a huge vision – a world in which leukaemia is quickly, safely and completely cured. We work towards this vision by funding and conducting our own research into finding new and safer antibody-based treatments for currently incurable forms of leukaemia. We receive no government funding and rely wholly on public support. With your help we are bringing new hope to leukaemia patients, both children and adults alike, by fighting for their lives through research.
