Edinburgh Marathon 2012 - Full Marathon · 27 May 2012 ·

We support people in the north of Scotland who are affected by cancer or a blood disorder. Working hand-in-glove with the NHS, we take care of the ‘big little things’, and we fund cutting-edge equipment and research. Every penny makes an impact as our operating costs are covered by Balmoral Group.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit&nbsp;our JustGiving page.</p> <p>We will be running the Edinburgh Marathon on 27 May 2012.&nbsp; For those of you who remember me saying i would never do it again, this time its different.....</p> <p>In spring last year, a very close friend of ours, Neil Taylor,&nbsp;was diagnosed with cancer.&nbsp; During the last year Neil has had several treatments for Myeloma and has recently spent a month in isolation in hospital to have a stem cell transplant.&nbsp; Neil is only 45 and we haven't hear him complain once!</p> <p>I know that Neil and his family have received care and support from the charity Friends of Anchor.&nbsp; During this time Friends of Anchor fund the purchase of non NHS provided equipment for Aberdeen Royal Infirmary's ANCHOR unit.&nbsp; They also fund additioanl care, comfort and support for patients attending the ANCHOR unit and fund vital ground breaking research projects.</p> <p>We have therefore decided to run for Friends of Anchor to thank them for this support and care.&nbsp;So PLEASE dig deep!&nbsp; Thank you.</p>
