I will be running the Barcelona Marathon with five other friends on the 19th of March

I am raising money for cancer research UK as each year, over 350,000 new cases of cancer are discovered. With the rising number of cancer diagnoses and types, it is important the right research and equipment are there to help those in need. Cancer has affected my friend's families, impacting and changing many lives due to its effects and sadly taking those they loved most away from them far too early. I have also had close family members who have been diagnosed and affected by it. By no means is running a marathon a similar challenge. Still, I hope by taking part and physically challenging myself, I can inspire you to donate towards this prevalent issue growing inside the UK and globally and fight cancer. 

Please check out our joint page as well, where my friends are representing other charities, including Target Ovarian Cancer and Papyrus (Men's Mental Health). 

All donations will be gratefully received, as every little bit counts

All the best 

Joe
