In memory of Nigel Duffin

Virgin London Marathon 2014 · 13 April 2014 ·

Every two hours, someone in the UK will become paralysed. Globally, it is estimated that 15.4 million people are living with paralysis. At Spinal Research our vision is to create a world where paralysis can be cured, no matter when the injury occurred or where in the world.

Story

I will be running the London Marathon on 13 April 2014 in memory of Nigel Duffin, the loving father of my dear friend and running-mate James and all-round amazing man.

 

Nigel tragically died in a road accident while cycling on 14 April 2013. The weekend of the London Marathon will mark the one year anniversary of Nigel's death.

 

I will be supporting Spinal Research (www.spinal-research.org), a charity Nigel would have undoubtedly required support from had he survived his spinal injury. Spinal Research is the UK’s leading charity funding medical research around the world to develop reliable treatments for paralysis caused by neck and back injuries. The money I raise will go towards helping those who survive accidents similar to Nigel’s and need to adapt to living with the consequences of a spinal injury.

 

I would greatly appreciate any donations and thank you in advance for supporting my marathon challenge.

 

See you at the finish line…
