We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

I would like to say a BIG thank you to everyone for your support, encouragement and generosity for ‘Our Mad Challenge – running for Claire’ in the Reading Half Marathon on Sunday 29th March.

 

We have attached a photo of us at the finish (not very flattering but full of smiles).

 

We were really proud of out times, as it was our first running event and we both acheived our goals of under 2hrs:30.  The quickest runner was fromand he achieved it in 62 minutes, makes you wonder what he eats for breakfast!

 

Donations to date have reached £1,301.00 plusHenderson’s matching we will have raised twice as much as we hoped – so thank you very much!

All donations will be sent directly to Leukaemia Research by Just Giving.

As you all know we may be mad, but we are inspired and determined ladies!  

Unfortunately, we have a very good reason for being so determined, and have choosen this charity for the simple reason that we will be helping others suffering from the same disease as Claire did.


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Leukaemia Research gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
