Last year one of my close friends, Chris Binks’ (aka Binksy) Mum, Bridget, lost her life to this terrible disease. For all that knew Bridget, she was an amazing woman that is missed every day. We have stupidly convinced each other to do the Great North Run in September 2025, therefore we are asking for donations to raise money for this great cause. Every single donation will be greatly received. The last time I did a half marathon in March 2023, I said the further I’m ever running in future is 10 miles as I hated it that much! So, do help me on this journey by donating.

The Bone Cancer Research Trust is dedicated to saving lives and improving outcomes for people affected by primary bone cancer. Despite being small, they fund more research projects exploring primary bone cancer than any other organisation. Other large UK cancer research charities do not prioritise bone cancer patients, in 2019 just 0.028% of their research spent went to bone cancer – not even close to 1%!

Last year alone, Bone Cancer Research Trust committed an incredible £807,824 to pioneering bone cancer research - to save lives! So any donations given will help this cause.
