Story

Hi folks! Thanks for taking the time to visit my fundraising page.

I am raising money for CLIC Sargent to help them continue their fantastic work.

I will be running the Brighton marathon on 12th April 2015. This will be marathon number 5! I have yet to break 4 hours. My best time so far is 4:03. My plan is to raise some cash to help those less fortunate than ourselves and run 26.2 miles in less than 4 hours. 3:59 would be brilliant!

CLIC Sargent support children and young people with cancer. Every day, around 10 children and young people hear the shocking news they have cancer. At the moment, CLIC Sargent can only help two out of three of them. They need continued financial support to continue the fantastic work they do.

They provide ;nurses who coordinate care to reduce time spent in hospital and deliver treatments closer to home.

Social workers who provide ongoing support to ease the emotional and financial impact of cancer treatment.

Play specialists who help prepare children for cancer treatment through play and activities.

Accommodation for families to be closer to specialist hospitals when their children are receiving long term treatment.

Any donations and words of encouragement would mean the world to me! Thank you!
