Story

Well it's me and this time I'm running 127 miles along the Liverpool to Leeds Canal on the 23rd August 2025 to raise money for Jacqui’s Million and the Bexley Cancer Centre in Leeds, something that means a great deal to me. Like so many others, I’ve seen the impact cancer can have both on the people we love and in my case, personally. Very recently I had a brush with skin cancer, and it was a stark reminder of how suddenly life can change. I was lucky, but many aren't. That’s why I’m taking on this challenge—to support vital care and research, and to honour those fighting battles much tougher than this run.

Thank you for your never ending support

Much love
