Story

Unfortunately, I lost a family member to cancer in 2012, a family member who made the lives of those around her a constant joy. As my Nan's life drew to a close, the St Luke's Hospice, Sheffield, worked tirelessly to make sure that she was still able to have her freedom and enjoy the time that she had left while coping with cancer.

The work that the hospice does is incredible and provides those with incurable illness' a chance to live out in dignity and enjoy the time that they still have.

My Nan did nothing but give to me, and to others, and in her memory I would like to give her something, as well as helping others in the future. I know if she could, she would run it with me, walking stick and all, or would at least be pushing me to never stop running.

No amount is too small, and anything you can donate would be a significant contribution to an unbelievable cause.

Thank you,

Matt.
