In April I am running the Mini London Marathon to help my amazing friend Robyn and raise money for Brain Tumour Awareness. Robyn is super brave, and I want to do something special to show her how awesome she is!

My dad is running the big London Marathon the next day, so we’re doing this together as a team. 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️ He’s running a lot further than me, but I think I’ll be quicker! 😆

I’d love your help to raise as much as possible. Every little bit will make a big difference. Thank you so much for supporting me – I promise to run my fastest!

Robyns' story

Robyn was diagnosed with a rare DNET brain tumour in May 2022 after showing signs that were later confirmed as absence seizures . The tumour is slow growing and causes medication resistant epilepsy. Robyns tumour isn't operable and so chemotherapy treatment is required to stabilise its growth.

At the moment, whilst the tumour is growing, it isn't yet applying pressure and so Robyns treatment isn't yet imminently necessary.

Robyn currently visits the Royal Marsden cancer hospital for an MRI every 3 months to allow her oncologist to monitor the tumour's development and plan next steps.
