Story

Update April 18th: Upping the target to £4,500 - 3 DAYS TO GO!

Update April 9th: Upping the target AGAIN due to everyone's unbelievable generosity. Thank you!

Adam Hunt and I are running London for Bowel Research UK to help beat bowel cancer, in memory of our dear friend Tom's sister, Hannah, who died of bowel cancer on the 10th March 2014, just short of her 27th birthday.

Tom, Debbie and Rob have been through so much as a family, losing Hannah to this terrible disease in 2014, and in 2023 having the sudden loss of Alastair, husband and father, to a pulmonary embolism.

Please help me raise as much as possible to try and stamp out this hideous disease, in memory of Hannah - and Alastair, two amazing people taken from us too soon.
