The charity I am supporting for this Harborough Half in May means so much to me

The woman who set it up is an absolute powerhouse, and I'm really proud to know her 🫶

You see, no matter what life has thrown at her

She pushes on with such vigour and such strength 💪

Victoria (known as Tor) has experienced cancer for almost a decade, since being originally diagnosed with Breast Cancer in 2015.

Currently riddled with cancer, she is now living with terminal cancer where the disease has spread to her bones. But she is determined not to be defined by this; having found a new love for fitness and its transformative power, she wants to help empower others.

The Tor-Rox Foundation is an organisation that provides people with a current cancer diagnosis with financial grants to be able to access specialist exercise programmes, designed for the individual to improve their health and fitness.

The charity receives applications and works with the individual to find a suitable fitness facility or exercise programme.

The focus is on strength training, specifically small group PT, with dedicated coaches in a friendly environment.

In 2025 Tor and The Tor-Rox Foundation gained national recognition and won regional Pride of Britain awards - so well deserved! 👏

I'd love to raise as much awareness of this wonderful charity as possible and raise as much as I can to support this as I know how much it means.

My half marathon is 17th May so you will see a lot more of these posts, I know there are many charities out there but as always, I feel its important to highlight the smaller charities that don't get the spotlight often.
