Tour De Luce · 1 June 2024

With a focus on patient-centred care, we combine state-of-the art-equipment, novel clinical trials, passionate staff and the most modern cancer research with compassion and effective psychological support so that our patients and their loved ones can feel fully supported throughout their cancer journey. We do this because we know each person and every cancer is unique - we don’t want to treat them all the same. Guy’s is the leading UK provider of care and treatment for people with cancer and we’re dedicated to helping patients navigate what can be the most challenging time of their lives. With all our services located under one roof within our bright and welcoming Cancer Centre, we’re able to offer seamless care every step of the way, from diagnosis, through treatment, and after, in an environment that doesn’t feel like a traditional hospital. We know that the landscape of cancer is changing. More people are being affected, but we’re at an exciting point in time when promising new therapies are being developed and research breakthroughs are waiting to be made. It’s crucial that we continue to fund the innovative research, treatment and exceptional care that takes place at Guy’s to ensure we keep going above and beyond what the NHS alone can provide as we help more people cope with and survive cancer.

Story

Last year on the 17th June 2023 we sadly lost the amazing Lucie Simpson after her ongoing battle over the past 2 years with breast cancer.

In 2022, Lucie's amazing partner Toby set up Tour De Luce - A mega cycling challenge, raising money to support Guys Cancer Charity who have done some amazing work. Lucie's treatment at Guy's was amazing, and the people especially were incredible.

In doing Tour De Luce Toby has already raised over £20,000!!

This year, on 1st June, Toby has invited us all to participate in Tour de Luce so Ellie & Tom will be joining in on the fun running 42km in Richmond Park between them (Yes that is a half marathon each!).

We plan on doing a relay style run eg. Ellie runs 5k, Tom runs 5k until we get the job done!

This charity means so much to us, and we miss Lucie every single day.

Any donations big or small are all welcomed in Lucie's memory, and will help the fantastic work of Guy's
