Story
I’m running the Yorkshire Marathon in 2024 in memory of my lovely friend, Will. This will be a huge challenge for me, but nothing compared to the challenges he faced with Leukaemia. Will was one of the strongest, most courageous people I’ll ever know and I’m blessed to have 20 years of friendship and a lifetime of memories to look back at. I’ve chosen to join the stem cell donor register and raise awareness of, and perhaps even a little bit of money for, Anthony Nolan by running my first ever marathon in support of Will and a charity that means a lot to him and his incredibly strong family.🤍

Anthony Nolan’s world-leading stem cell register, groundbreaking cell and gene therapy research and expertise in stem cell transplants means we currently help four patients a day in need of a transplant, giving more people another chance to live. But we know we can, and must, do more. Driven by patients, backed by stem cell donors, powered by science, and with your support, we won’t stop until we’ve uncovered the lifesaving potential of the cells inside us all, and every patient can survive and thrive.
