I am proud to be running the Great North Run 2026 marathon on 13 September 2026 as part of #TeamBowelCancerUK. This journey is deeply personal and I’ll be running in memory of my lovely dad who sadly died in May from bowel cancer and my Mum has also recently been diagnosed, so this run means so much to myself and my family.

Bowel Cancer UK stands as the UK’s leading charity dedicated to this cause. Their unwavering commitment to saving lives and enhancing the quality of life for those affected inspires me every step of the way. They fund vital research, offer expert support to patients and families, educate communities and healthcare professionals, and tirelessly campaign for early diagnosis and access to the best treatments.

Your support can make a tangible difference: £10 could deliver an awareness talk that saves lives; £25 could provide an hour of expert nurse support through their Ask the Nurse service; £50 could help improve bowel screening policies that catch cancer earlier when it’s most treatable.

Together, we can help Bowel Cancer UK realize their vision — a future where nobody dies from bowel cancer. I invite you to join me in this mission by donating today towards my target of £375. Every contribution brings us closer to hope, healing, and a world transformed by compassion and care. Thank you for standing with us.
