Story

Cancer Card are building an online support hub providing support and information for cancer patients, professionals, families, friends and employers as they navigate the world of cancer.This will include contacts for cancer charities and support services across the UK, invaluable information including signposting to financial help, disability support, access to complimentary services and treats and personal guides and tips from our Cancer Card community.

Watching my best friend (and honorary second mum to my kids) go through breast cancer has been heartbreaking, but all the little words of advice, treats, coping strategies and networks of support have absolutely made all the difference to her and her family. Cancer Card’s online website will signpost this help and make it available to everyone, all in one place.

Finlay and I will relay run 26 miles/42km on Saturday 25th June at the Sunset Festival of Running. Finlay is 16 and has cerebral palsy. He uses a framerunner to support him to run and aid his coordination. We’ll tackle the marathon in four legs:

Gill - run 14km / Finlay framerun 7km / Gill run 14km / Finlay framerun 7km

This will be a massive achievement for Finlay and we would be absolutely delighted to have your support for Cancer Card. Thank you 💛

**footnote - framerunning is an intensive and challenging disability sport. If the weather is unsuited to a full marathon, we will revert to half marathon.
