It's been a year since our amazing Jemma passed away. In her memory, four of us–Paul (a seasoned half marathoner) and first-timers Sam, Phoebe and Kundan— are running the Ealing Half Marathon as Team Jemma. As you can see from the photo above Jemma ran this race 10 years ago in 2:12, tackling it with the same courage and positivity she showed during her 22 month battle with cancer.

Our goal: all finish inside 2:12 and raise as much as possible for the charity that supported us with their amazing helpful nurses and vital research.

Please sponsor us and help us smash our target in Jemma's name.

We are Pancreatic Cancer UK.

We go above and beyond for everyone affected by this disease. Right now, half of people with pancreatic cancer die within three months of diagnosis. Families are left with only hope to hold onto. They need more. So, we do more.

We bring more breakthroughs through research, more change through campaigning, and more support through our expert nurses. We make more noise because people have gone unheard. We are relentless because the disease is ruthless. We care more because people feel forgotten.
