Story

Unfortunately as many of you know, my Mum was diagnosed with Leukaemia. I have done fundraising activities before to try and support the charity the best I can as unfortunately there is no cure for Mum but the more research and support around this is so important.

My Mum is my hero. Despite this horrible illness, she has shown the most incredible strength that I admire so much therefore having never even ran a marathon before I am taking on the challenge of the London Marathon 2024 and this is going to test just a portion of the strength my Mum has to show everyday. I would be so grateful for your support towards this charity and towards me getting through the marathon!

Leukaemia Care is a national charity dedicated to ensuring that anyone affected by blood cancer receives the right information, advice and support. Around 34,000 people are affected by blood cancer each year in the UK and we're here to support them through their diagnosis, treatment and beyond.
