Story

On 26 of April, I'll be running the London marathon with my close friends Tom and Alex to raise money for Sarcoma UK.

Last September, we lost Oliver to sarcoma - a rare and aggressive form of cancer that affects bones and soft tissues. Oliver was Toms younger brother and a great friend of mine and many others. He was only 16 years old.

Although Oliver was three years younger than me, we had a great relationship and had a lot in common. Seeing how strong Oliver had been in the two years fighting sarcoma was truly inspirational and really made me realise how lucky I am.

Sarcoma UK funds vital research, raises awareness, and supports patients and their families, like Oliver.

Any donations, no matter how big or small, would be greatly appreciated and will go a long way supporting the amazing work that this charity does.

Thank you❤️
