Story
On Sunday 3rd October 2021, 33 Luton Lions will be running the London Marathon with thousands of other runners through the streets of the capital city.
We are fundraising for Children with Cancer UK with a collective team target to raise £75,000.
During the pandemic, there have been many businesses and sectors that have suffered, this includes the charity sector which relies on donations.
Training for a marathon is no mean feat and with your support and knowing that what we are doing is going to make a difference will help me get to that finishing line.
Thank you.

Children with Cancer UK invest in childhood cancer research that would otherwise go unfunded. Only around 2% of cancer research funding in the UK* is spent on research that is fully dedicated to childhood and young adult cancer.
*estimated amount based on data from the NCRI Cancer Research Database (CaRD) for 2018/19
At Children with Cancer UK we actively raise and invest money for vital specialist research to save the lives of every child with cancer and keep their family together. Our vision is a world where every child diagnosed with cancer gets to ring their end of cancer treatment bell.
