Story

On 26 of August , 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❤️
