Having fought cancer twice before, the disease reoccurred in December 2018 and sadly Tom, at just 29 years old, died on 12th June 2019 from osteosarcoma. Tom was a Manchester City mad, stone island collector, and Daddy to two beautiful daughters.

Story

As im sure many of my family and friends know, we lost a very special man to this hiddious disease, Tom is the true hero here and we challendge on bodies to remeber just a little of what he had to go through. This one is for you big man

Thank you for visiting my page. I've chosen to run the 2023 London Marathon for Sarcoma UK, a national charity that funds vital research, offers support for anyone affected by sarcoma cancer and campaigns for better treatments.

Sarcoma is a type of cancer that develops in the bone and soft tissue. It is difficult to diagnose and one of the hardest to treat. By supporting me, we can help change this. Your donation will help researchers find answers, keep the specialist Support Line open, and raise awareness to improve treatment and standards of care.

Your donations go so far in helping the sarcoma community:

£1 Could cover the cost of 10 texts to the support line.
£10 Could be used to buy microscope slides to look at cells in minute detail.
£30 Could fund one hour of use of a high-powered laboratory microscope.
£150 Could fund the support line for a week.


Thank you for your support.
