Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 10 October I will be running my third half marathon through some of the leafy parks of Central London. I am running for Teenage Cancer Trust which is the only UK charity dedicated to meeting the needs of young people (and their families) who have to hear the words “you have cancer”. They are world-class in their field and make the challenges of having cancer at such a young age more bearable. 

Back in April, during my last year of teaching, one of the girls in my year group was diagnosed with Hodgkin Lymphoma. This was clearly devastating news for all who knew and loved her. However, through sheer determination and unwavering bravery, she has overcome this horrid disease and is looking forward to getting on with her life cancer free. Though she has been remarkably stoic throughout, I know that TCT have been a great source of advice and help for her and her family, helping to navigate the way through this difficult time. 

Thank you for taking time to read my Just Giving page. Please give to this wonderful charity; any donation will be very much appreciated.
