Sharonkatharine's London Marathon Challenge

London Marathon 2018 · 22 April 2018 ·
Having seen our son/nephew Kevin bravely face the challenge of fighting a rare bone cancer at such a young age has left us with a clear feeling of wanting to challenge ourselves in aid of a cause which helps other children in similar circumstances. As a mother/aunty & godmother we saw first hand the benefits of Kevin having a special wish granted through the help and support of a charity supporting terminally ill children. Although from experience we know you never come to terms with the loss of a child, being able to give something back to support others helps to give us a more positive outlook. This will be a real challenge for us and we would really appreciate your kind support. Make-A-Wish UK grant magical wishes to enrich the lives of children and young people fighting life-threatening conditions. Granting their wish provides seriously ill children with hope for the future, strength to cope and resilience to fight their condition. They’re given quality time away from the daily realities of living with their condition and given the chance to make magical memories they can treasure forever – whatever their future may hold. We want to transform the lives of 1,000 children this year by granting their One True Wish!
