In October, I’ll be running the Manchester Half Marathon in loving memory of my gorgeous mum, Ann. She passed away in December after seven years of fighting with such strength, resilience, and an unwavering positivity that carried all of us through the hardest days. She remained endlessly caring and courageous right until the very end. I miss her every single day, and this run, and the fundraising alongside it is my way of honouring her incredible spirit and the brave way she never stopped fighting.

Together we are beating cancer.
