Story

🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Louise & Tristan Are Running the London Marathon for Dylan ❤️

On Sunday 27th April, Louise (Dylan’s mummy) and Uncle Tristan will be taking on the incredible challenge of running the London Marathon—26.2 miles of determination, love, and strength—all in memory of our superhero, Dylan.

Dylan was just 6 years old when he was diagnosed with a brain tumour in May 2020. He faced every moment with courage, cheekiness, and a smile that lit up every room. Despite fighting so bravely, Dylan passed away at home in June 2021, surrounded by his loving family.

To honour his life and help others facing similar battles, Dylan’s family launched The Dylan Strong Foundation in March 2022. The charity supports children diagnosed with cancer and their families through nutritional advice, emotional support, and by delivering healthy meals and snacks directly to hospitals—because no child or parent should have to worry about food while facing the unimaginable.

Running a marathon is no small task—but Louise and Tristan are doing it with every step powered by love, loss, and the unwavering drive to help others in Dylan’s name.

❤️ If you can, please donate. Every pound makes a difference and helps continue the work of this beautiful, life-changing charity.

Thank you so much for your support—and for helping us keep Dylan’s light shining bright.
