Team: Lulu & Mel run the London Marathon for Blood Cancer UK!
London Marathon 2025 · 27 April 2025 ·
On Sunday, 27th April 2025, Lulu & Mel will tackle running the London Marathon to raise £6000 for Blood Cancer UK.
In August 2012, Lulu was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML), which can be fatal within 4-6 weeks. She was only 13. But thanks to incredible treatment and care, within six months, Lulu was beating blood cancer and officially in “remission.”
Since then, our mission has been to support Blood Cancer UK in funding the life-saving research and work they do to support anyone affected by blood cancer.
Our Dad started our family on this path, raising over £60,000 in 2013 thanks to an incredible series of events. He sadly passed away in December 2015, but we have been determined to continue his legacy. In 2018, Lulu and Mel ran the Bristol Half-Marathon, raising over £3000 for Blood Cancer. Now, they are tackling double that distance with the London Marathon and hope to raise double the amount, too!
So please donate as much or as little as you can. Together, you can help us beat Blood Cancer and make our Dad proud! :)
