Alison's fundraiser run for The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity

Alison Young is raising money for The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity

Fulham 10k · 15 November 2026 · Start fundraising for this event

Team Marsden are raising funds by taking on the amazing Fulham 10k to make a difference to cancer patients everywhere.

Story

I received fantastic care and treatment at the Royal Marsden Hospital (RMH) for lymphoma cancer in the summer and wanted to promote the amazing work done by the fantastic team and raise some much needed funds. The team I met and was cared for at RMH are amazing; incredibly caring, professional and the expertise - phenomenal.

So I have decided to run the Fulham 10km in November. When I signed up for the Fulham 10km I didn’t know whether my treatment would be effective or how I would be in mid November, but as they say everyone needs a goal. So as I said to my family and friends

“I will run, walk or crawl it, but I will finish it”.

Thankfully the CAR-T-cell therapy has been successful and I have no visible cancer. Thanks so much to Dr Francesca Sillito and the amazing haematology and other teams at RMH Sutton and Chelsea.

The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity raises money to help save the lives of people with cancer. They ensure The Royal Marsden’s world-leading nurses, doctors and research teams can provide the very best care and develop life-saving treatments, which are used across the UK and around the world.

From funding state-of-the-art equipment and groundbreaking research, to creating the very best patient environments, they will never stop looking for ways to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.
