Story

Hi everybody, we are taking part in the Virtual 2021 London Marathon, running as a team to help change the lives of people affected by Sarcoma. 

Just over 4 years ago, a great friend of the family, Charley Ashton was diagnosed with a rare cancer and unfortunately passed away at the early age of 35, leaving this world as a daughter, a mother, a great friend and a loving wife.  Sarcoma UK played a supporting role in helping Charley and her family during this time and so we want to help others just like Charley.

If you would like to support us in this fantastic event, please do make a donation of whatever you can to help.

Huge thank you from Sophie, Jess, Gemma, Richard, Peter and Stella xx
