My father-in-law, Mike Sadler, was a fit and healthy 63 year old when, just six weeks after his diagnosis, he died of a brain tumour in November 2020.

Brain tumour survival rates are just 11% and treatments haven’t changed in 40 years. By the time that Mike was admitted to hospital it was already too late, with no treatment available and the disease already at an advanced stage. We don’t want any other family to have their world turned upside down by cancer.

I'm going to be taking on the world's most famous 26.2 miles on Sunday 2 October for The Brain Tumour Charity.

By running for The Brain Tumour Charity I'm playing a huge part in The Charity's movement to defeat brain tumours sooner - by moving faster and further to find a cure. COVID-19 had a huge impact on all charities, but heading into 2022, events like the London Marathon will be back in full force and I can't wait to take the course on and do my bit #ACureCantWait

All donations, big and small, really do make a difference. We hugely appreciate anything you’re able to give.
