Story

Hi guys,

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!

I am currently in training for the London Marathon 2015, which I am running for CLIC Sargent, a fantastic charity that works with kids with cancer.

They provide clinical, practical, financial and emotional support to help many children and young people cope with cancer and get the most out of life. They are there from diagnosis onwards and aim to help the whole family deal with the impact of cancer and its treatment, life after treatment and, in some cases, bereavement.

I am sure you will all agree that this is a fantastic cause, so please dig deep and give as generously as you can! Little amounts add up so anything you can afford from £1 to £100 would be greatly appreciated.

£15 could pay for one copy of CLIC Sargent’s DVD to help families where a child or young person has died of cancer to understand and cope with their grief.
£25 could help pay for an hour of a CLIC Sargent Nurse’s time, so that they can coordinate clinical and non-clinical care for children with cancer, to maximise the amount of time they can safely spend at home, and ensure that treatments can be given closer to home where possible.
£50 could pay for three hours of a CLIC Sargent Play Specialist’s time, so that they can help a child prepare for and cope with treatment, by using models, toys and photos to explain what will happen.
£75 could help pay for three hours of a social worker’s time. They will aim to meet children and young people with cancer, and their families, soon after diagnosis and help them to understand and cope with the emotional, practical and financial effects of cancer, through treatment and beyond.

Thanks so much for any and all of your support!
