Great North Run 2025 · 7 September 2025 ·

We are a children's cancer charity funding research into finding more targeted and less harsh treatments for the childhood solid tumour, Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS). We have invested in 13 RMS research projects at leading UK institutions. We also support the children and families impacted by the disease.

Story

I wasn’t going to run this year after picking up an injury last year. However seeing Sophia go through such a hard time lately she deserves this 🤍

We first met Sophia in Manchester whilst she and Eleanore were receiving radiotherapy and we have stayed in touch since.

Please donate if you can!

Sophia was diagnosed with High risk Rhabdomyosarcoma at age 2 in Dec 22 and underwent 9 rounds of intensive chemotherapy (Sheffield children's hospital) and 6 weeks of Proton beam therapy (The Christie), Sophia finished front line treatment in October 2023. Sophia’s tumour remained stable until January this year when her relapse was confirmed, Sophia now faces another 12 rounds of chemotherapy.
