Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I'm so excited (and a bit nervous) to be running the London Marathon this year on Sunday 2nd October for Young lives Vs Cancer!
I've never ran further than 27 kilometres so these coming months I'll be training as hard as I can to do my best for this charity because it has done so much for us.
My daughter, Bella, is now 3 years in remission after being diagnosed with cancer in 2018. The journey she faced and walked through was tremendously hard and something that changed hers and our families lives forever.
I want to give something back to Young lives Vs Cancer which is why I applied to run for them. This charity supported us in so many ways during this time. From making sure I had accommodation a stone's throw away from Bella when she was in hospital (which was A LOT) to getting us in contact with equipment and supplies to help her and our whole family through the hardest times. Nothing was to much for them. We never had to ask... They just provided. I was acutely aware everytime we received help from them that this help was given because ordinary people had donated money and strived in different ways to provide these incredibly important things for us. We were being loved by strangers. Good citizens of the world.. who asked for nothing in return.. they just wanted to love and support us. Just overwhelmingly mind-blowing.
It's now my turn to say thank you and work hard to give something back.. and I'd be so very grateful if you would help me do that.
If you are able, please donate and help me reach my goal of £2500! I'm sure we can do it!
Thank you and lots of love xx
