Story
Alice’s Arc was inspired by Alice's journey with cancer. She was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma at age 3 in March 2015. She had 20 months of chemotherapy at GOSH, UK and proton radiation in the US. Alice spent a year cancer free but it returned in February 2018. She underwent 6 months of chemotherapy and a procedure known as AMORE in Amsterdam involving surgery and brachytherapy. Alice spent another year clear before tumours were found in her abdomen and pelvis in July 2019. There were no options left. Alice died, aged 7, in October 2019.
We are a team of health care professionals from the Joint GOSH/UCLH Principal Treatment Centre and Paediatric Oncology Shared Care Units making a collective effort to fundraise for Alice's Arc - a children's cancer charity.
We will be running 🏃♀️🏃♂️ (or walking🚶♀️🚶♂️ ) at the Royal Parks Half Marathon on Sunday 8th October 2023. Note the date and come along to show support and cheer us on.
Looking forward to messages of support for our participants and very much appreciate any amount of donations in support of Alice's Arc - Children's Cancer Charity.
Thank you.
