Story

Update: On Saturday 29/01/22, my Auntie sadly lost her battle with cancer and passed away with her family by her side. I will now be running the half marathon in her memory. Thank you for anything you can donate x

Hello!

On 22nd May 2022 I will be running the Hackney Half marathon and raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support, a fantastic charity close to my heart.

My beloved Auntie Mandy was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 2019 and had been undergoing invasive chemotherapy and other treatments since. Unfortunately the cancer proceeded to spread to her liver, and over this Christmas period, we received the news that further tumours had appeared and she was to undergo more painful and debilitating treatment.

Throughout the process since her diagnosis, Macmillan has offered support to my Auntie and her family, providing help and reassurance in extremely uncertain and and often frightening times, particularly navigating cancer through the Covid-19 pandemic.

I will be running 13.1 miles to proudly support Macmillan and the amazing work it does to help those living with cancer, and anything you can give would be greatly appreciated by me and my family.

Thank you!
