Story
Thank you for visiting our page. We have chosen to run the 2023 London Landmarks Half Marathon for Sarcoma UK, a national charity that funds vital research, offers support for anyone affected by sarcoma cancer and campaigns for better treatments.
Alison (Duncan's wife and Fiona's Mum) was diagnosed with a sarcoma in 2018 and, despite the best efforts of the amazing clinical team and the even more amazing efforts of Alison herself, (she lived with rather than suffered from ..), she died (we prefer, 'was Promoted to Glory') in April 2020.
We know all to well that Sarcoma is a type of cancer that develops in the bone and soft tissue. It is difficult to diagnose and one of the hardest to treat. By supporting us, we can help change this. Your donation will help researchers find answers, keep the specialist Support Line open, and raise awareness to improve treatment and standards of care. Your donations go so far in helping the sarcoma community:£1 Could cover the cost of 10 texts to the support line.£10Could be used to buy microscope slides to look at cells in minute detail. £30Could fund one hour of use of a high-powered laboratory microscope. £150 Could fund the support line for a week.Thank you for your support.
