Story

On the 21st April 2024, I will be lacing up my trainers and setting myself the challenge of running the London Marathon in aid of Leukaemia UK, beautiful Billie bobs and her amazing family!

In the UK alone, every 14 minutes someone is diagnosed with blood cancer. Unfortunately, In November 2022 the most gorgeous, happiest, loving little girl, Billie was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Billie’s superhuman fighting spirit has been inspirational through everything she has gone through so far! The road ahead for Billie is long but she is the strongest and bravest little girl that just keeps fighting! Billie has shown amazing strength & resilience throughout her treatment to date and is a real inspiration just like her mummy, daddy and Ada (her big sister). 

Leukaemia UK aim to bring together the leukaemia community to find and fund the life changing research that matters the most! Together we can stop leukaemia devastating lives through research, awareness and advocacy!

On the 29/11/22 Freyja’s and Zac’s lives were turned up side down, and as you can imagine, this is any parents worst nightmare hearing the news that your beautiful daughter has leukaemia at the age of one! Whilst out running listening to Paddington bear, I think to myself how proud I am of this incredible family! 

I am proud to be running to help those who really need it and playing my small part in helping find a cure for this awful disease that no child or family should have to go through!

Keep going Billie bobs, you’re the strongest most gorgeous little girlie there is! We’re with you every step of the way! You’ve got this! 

Thank you for taking the time to visit my just giving page. Leukaemia UK, Freyja, Zac and myself would appreciate any support no matter how big or small to support this incredible cause!
