David Wright is raising money for Hope Against Cancer
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

5k for Grandad · 27 July 2020

We have funded over 100 research projects tackling many forms of cancer. In 2012 we opened a dedicated clinical trials centre at Leicester Royal Infirmary to offer patients access to new medicines and therapies. We also fund two nurses who add to the care and support trials patients receive.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Hi, I’m George and I’m 7 years old. I wanted to do something to raise money for the Hope Centre at Leicester Royal Infirmary as they look after my Grandad.

He’s not been very well for a while now but they take good care of him. I don’t fully understand why he’s ill, or what’s really wrong with him but I wanted to help and do something.

So I decided to raise money by doing a 5k run. I’ve never run that far before so I’m starting to do some training and will gradually work up to the full 5k.

What I do know is we all love Grandad as he’s great fun and we all hope he gets better soon!! Hopefully my run will help raise a bit of money so that the staff at the Hope Centre can carry on with their amazing work - helping Grandad and so many other people.
