I have been rather moved by the story of Seraph at my daughter's school. He is a 4 year old boy who has been fighting Neuroblastoma for 2 years now and is nearing the end of his treatment.

Almost half of the children who make it through frontline treatment relapse. It means that Seraphs family are fundraising £237,000 for the Bivalent Vaccine clinical trial, currently only available at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in the US. Not yet offered in the UK, this is Seraph's best chance of living a cancer free life. To date his family have done amazingly well and raised around £112,000 but there is still a long way to go.

I would like to do my bit to help them by raising sponsorship for taking part in (and hopefully finishing!) the Outlaw Half Ironman in Nottingham on May 19th.
