Story

Thank you for visiting my page.

Each year, more than 150 children in Yorkshire are diagnosed with cancer.

In September last year, Evie was diagnosed with a rare soft tissue sarcoma.

When someone you love is diagnosed with cancer, life changes instantly — not just for them, but for the whole family. Since Evie’s diagnosis, we’ve experienced first-hand the emotional and physical challenges that come with treatment, surgery and uncertainty.

Despite everything she has faced, Evie has shown incredible positivity and strength throughout extensive surgeries and chemotherapy, facing each stage with courage and a smile.

In June, I’ll be taking on the Montane Summer Spine Challenger North to raise money for Sarcoma UK.

The Montane Spine Challenger North is a 160-mile non-stop ultramarathon along the Pennine Way from Yorkshire to the Scottish Borders. The race is completely self-navigated and largely self-supported, with only limited checkpoints along the route. With a strict 90-hour cut-off, I’ll need to manage my own navigation, kit, pacing, food and sleep while moving through some of the toughest terrain in Britain.

There will be long days, little sleep, difficult weather and moments where I’ll want to stop — but those challenges are nothing compared to what people living with sarcoma and their families face every day.

I’m fundraising for Sarcoma UK because they provide vital support for patients and families while also funding research into better treatments and earlier diagnosis.

Every donation, no matter how small, would mean a huge amount and will help support families facing sarcoma.

Thank you for supporting me, Evie and everyone affected by sarcoma.
