I am running the distance from Grantham to Great Ormond Street hospital (180km) by the end of March, in support of CHECT.

My best friend Charlotte and her wife Bex have recently discovered that their 1 year old daughter, Isla, has a cancerous tumour in her eye. Isla is receiving the very best treatment at Great Ormond Street Hospital.

Retinoblastoma is highly treatable but diagnosis is vital. Raising awareness of this disease is so important. 

CHECT provides support, funds research and raises awareness. Their support has been invaluable to Charlotte and Bex as they fight this battle together, for Isla. In times like this, their support is even more important when friends and family can’t be on hand to help!

Due to Covid restrictions, I can’t travel to see little Isla, so I’m going to “virtually” run to where she is being treated. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Simply reading this story and raising awareness is enough, but if you would like to donate, it would be greatly appreciated by me, CHECT, The Paluls and children and their families who continue to be affected by this awful disease.
