Two years ago this February we lost my amazing cousin Frank to Ewing Sarcoma, a rare form of Bone Cancer. I am running 100 miles (161km!) throughout the 28 days of February to raise money for Bone Cancer Research.

Frank was only 14 when he died after two years of gruelling chemotherapy. He was so kind, smart and funny and we miss him everyday. His positivity and courage will forever be an inspiration and is motivating me to push through the 100 cold miles! 

Bone cancer currently receives no government funding and treatment and survival rates have not improved in nearly 40 years. Frank’s Fund has done so much towards raising money for research (hitting £200k this month!) and the 9th February 2021 marks two years since we lost him. I would therefore love to raise more much-needed funds in his memory.

Thank you so much for any donations! 

The Bone Cancer Research Trust is dedicated to saving lives & improving outcomes for people affected by primary bone cancer. Despite being small, they fund more research projects exploring primary bone cancer than any other organisation. Other large UK cancer research charities do not prioritise bone cancer patients, in 2019 just 0.028% of their research spend went to bone cancer – not even close to 1%!Last year alone, Bone Cancer Research Trust committed an incredible £807,824 to pioneering bone cancer research - to save lives!
