Jack and Megan's fundraiser for Yorkshire and Humberside Asbestos Support Group (SARAG)

Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Leeds Half Marathon 2026 · 10 May 2026 ·

Our Charity provides support to those affected by asbestos related conditions. Our support is available across Yorkshire, Humberside and North Nottinghamshire, to those diagnosed plus their families, supporters and carers. Every year, our charity receives around 350 referrals from hospitals across our area. We help each individual access (on average) over £24,000 in government benefits and compensations. As well as reducing financial hardship, we offer emotional, bereavement and wellbeing support, either in person, by phone or online, and we organise face-to-face social groups and events for our clients, who are mostly older, often poorly, vulnerable people.

Story

As some of you my know, our Grandad, Denis, was diagnosed with Mesothelioma (an asbestos related cancer) in September 2024.

We are taking part in the Rob Burrow Leeds Half Marathon on 10th May and are raising money for the Messy Support Group.

Mesothelioma Support Yorkshire aims to provide information, support and practical advice to people affected by Mesothelioma.

We have decided that for every £5 a person donates, their name will be put into a raffle. The winner gets to decide an appropriate fancy dress costume for us to wear on the run. This will be drawn on 24th April.

Thank you

Jack & Megan
