Reading Half Marathon · 14 April 2024 ·

Chordoma UK was established in 2013 as a special fundraising initiative incorporated into UCL Cancer Institute Research Trust. Chordoma is a rare, relentless and difficult to treat bone cancer that occurs in the head and spine in people of all ages regardless of gender, race or sexual orientation. During 2017 Chordoma UK became an independent UK registered charity and exists to (a) promote and provide financial support to encourage primary and peripheral research projects into chordoma and research projects that might benefit the understanding of, and treatments, therapies, and cures for, chordoma being undertaken at bona-fide research establishments within the United Kingdom and elsewhere. (b) provide patient support services and other support resources for chordoma sufferers and those connected with or related to chordoma sufferers (c) promote awareness into chordoma within the patient, healthcare, and clinician communities. (e) support individuals and organisations whose aim is to raise funds for Chordoma UK and (f) provide financial assistance for other charities or bodies as are in any way concerned with research into chordoma and other related cancers or with the furtherance of awareness of chordoma.

Story

I’m running the Reading Half Marathon for Chordoma Uk in April 2024, a charity funding research in Chordoma, a rare bone cancer found in the spine.

I’ve entered this event as my ‘Pops’ was diagnosed in 2020 and has undergone various operations and treatments and is still fighting this incurable tumor. He is the strongest man in my life and I’m beyond proud of him as he has managed to stay his incredible self the entire time.

Chordoma UK financially supports ground breaking research and due to its rarity and differences from other cancers, Chordoma receives very little funding from large research organisations. If surgery isn’t possible, patients are often left without further options of treatment. More research needs to be carried out in order to help those with Chordoma and this research relies on the work of Chordoma UK and the Chordoma Foundation.

Please donate to this amazing charity and leave your name so I can say thank you! I’m really looking forward to this event and would greatly appreciate your support :)

Thank you,

Beau xxx
