Milo's fundraiser for The Sophie Fitzpatrick Charitable Foundation for Rare Cancers

Milo Thomas is raising money for The Sophie Fitzpatrick Charitable Foundation for Rare Cancers
In memory of Sophie Fitzpatrick and Graeme Matthews

Marathon Des Sables Legendary 2026 · 2 April 2026 to 13 April 2026 ·

We help people who have been diagnosed with a rare cancer. The Sophie Fitzpatrick Charitable Foundation for Rare Cancers is here to support people who have been diagnosed with a rare cancer, especially with cancer of the appendix or goblet cell carcinoma, like Sophie. This cancer is so rare that the number of cases in the UK is undocumented, and at the moment only 1,000 people in the USA are diagnosed with it out of a population of 341 million people. So there is little support and few resources to help – we aim to change this.

Story

I will be doing this to raise money and awareness for my friend Oscar’s charity. His mother Sophie passed away having had a 3 year battle with a very rare type of cancer called Goblet Cell Carcinoma (GCC). Throughout her life, Sophie radiated selflessness and kindness. She possessed an unwavering spirit of empathy, always ready to lend a listening ear or offer a helping hand to those in need. Her heart overflowed with love and her actions spoke volumes about her character. Sophie embodied the essence of what it meant to be compassionate.

This will also be in memory of Graeme Matthews their father who also sadly passed away. He was a great friend to anyone that knew him.
