Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Yes, I am doing this again! It might seem madness and it probably is but this is such a wonderful charity who are totally dependent on your support and donations to exist.

"Good quality of life while coping with cancer is the most important gift a sick person can receive. It should be available to everyone". The words of the charity founder, Helen Rollason.

Helen Rollason Cancer Charity support men and women with all types of cancer at all stages – whether newly diagnosed or longer-term, throughout treatment, and after treatment is completed.

All of their locations provide a welcoming and relaxing environment where people living with cancer can go – with their families, friends and carers – to talk through any concerns or just a friendly chat. Clients can have therapies that work together with their medical treatment and reduce stress.

This is work makes a huge difference, one I have seen first hand.

This will be my second London Marathon. However, that doesn't mean I am taking any of this for granted. Since April 2019, I haven't kept up the training to that same level, so I do feel I am starting again. The primary aim is to finish, but I would love to beat my last time, we shall see. Training through the Summer is a very different experience too, so I am counting on you for your support and donations. 

In 2019, we raised over £10,000 which is an incredible sum from an initial target of £3000. I know we can't reach that sort of figure again but £3000 would be amazing, and just the encouragement to keep going out on 10 mile training runs in this heat!
