Story

Hi everyone

Im running the London Marathon this year (yikes) and want to raise money for a brilliant small charity that is close to my heart.

Imagine being told that your child has cancer and then imagine how they feel when they lose their hair as a result of their treatment. We all know how important our hair is to our identity. No child should have to go through that

Which is why I chose the Little Princess Trust who provide real hair wigs, free of charge, to children and young people who have lost their own hair through cancer treatment or to other conditions such as Alopecia.

I have a ballot place so don't need to meet a big target. It costs £700 to provide one wig so it would be great to meet that if we can (or even more!)

The charity is also one of the largest funders of childhood cancer research in the UK. They're a small charity and rely solely on the generosity of its wonderful supporters who help the charity give Hair and Hope to so many children and young people with cancer each year.

Please give what you can and watch my video and updates. Lets try and make an awful situation which many of us can't even imagine just a little bit easier

Beyond grateful for anything you can manage or just pay me to shut up talking about the marathon!

Much love,

Rachel x
