Thanks for visiting my JustGiving page. I have been lucky enough to receive a place in this years London Marathon and will be running just 10 days after my 18th birthday. I have chosen to run for Jacob Jones who is currently battling neuroblastoma, a form of childhood cancer.

4-year-old Jacob’s been fighting high-risk neuroblastoma with an aggressive treatment regime since he was 2. Despite this, sadly he relapsed in April 2016, which has meant more treatment. His immunotherapy and treatment in the UK will end in July 2017. While his recent scans show no evidence of disease, relapse rates are high and the chance of surviving another relapse is very low. Knowing a further relapse could prove fatal, his family and treating team have identified the Bivalent Vaccine clinical trial at MSKCC in New York as additional therapy for Jacob should his scans remain clear of disease, which could help prevent the cancer returning. His family need to raise £192k within the next 4 months to cover the costs of accessing this trial, the associated costs and a contingency for unforeseen complications. Desperate to give their son the best chance of life, they need your help to raise the funds.
