Story

Thank you for visiting my page. I've chosen to run the 2025 London Marathon for Sarcoma UK, a charity that funds vital research, offers support for anyone affected by sarcoma cancer and campaigns for better treatments.

I am running the 2025 London Marathon in memory one of my best friends, Harry Collins. Harry passed away in June 2024 after being diagnosed with Rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare form of cancer, and battled tirelessly to stay with us. His fight and determination all the way through his chemotherapy treatment was a true inspiration and I want to allow people to continue celebrating his character through my marathon journey.

Harry was an amazing person and friend, and was the best boyfriend to my sister Britaney, so taking part in this marathon is the least I can do to raise both awareness, and money for the charity that aims to help save lives, fund research and support those also suffering from this disease.

Sarcoma is a type of cancer that develops in the bone and soft tissue. It is difficult to diagnose and one of the hardest to treat. By supporting me, we can help change this.

Your donations go so far in helping the sarcoma community:

£25 Could fund a Research Associate to work on a Sarcoma UK research project for one hour.

£334 Could fund Sarcoma UK's specialist Support Line for a day.

£2,000 Could help with the manufacture of a new-generation drug (PROTAC) which specifically targets sarcoma proteins and could reduce treatment side-effects.

Thank you for helping me make an impact.
