Vivi, Charlie and I will be running the Leamington half marathon in aid of Myton Hospice in memory of our dad, Andy Wymer.

After a fierce battle with prostate cancer, Dad spent his final weeks under the incredible care of the Myton Hospice in Warwick, where were we surrounded by unwavering kindness and support.

We will always be deeply grateful to everyone at Myton for the dignity and compassion they showed Dad. We truly saw the very best of humanity there.

The Cause

Prostate cancer is now the most commonly diagnosed cancer in England. -Prostatecanceruk.org, 2025

With the recent "King Charles effect" and public stories from figures like Sir Chris Hoy, awareness is at an all-time high—but the fight for early detection continues.

The Challenge

This half marathon is our way of beginning to give something back to Myton for everything they did for us, and to help them continue supporting other families like ours.

Please consider donating if you can - every contribution helps and is hugely appreciated.

Myton Hospice

Myton are a charity, not the NHS, and must raise £12.7 million of the £15.3 million it costs this year to provide their services free of charge.

Just 17% of Mytons funding comes from the NHS.

Last year, Myton supported over 2,000 people and their families, in their hospices, via their patient & family support services, and in the community through Myton at home.
