Story

Dear Amazing Supporters,

I've kept it fairly quiet so far, but I've managed to secure a ballot place in the London Marathon...

On April 22nd I will be running to raise money for St Margaret's Hospice, in memory of my lovely Dad, Chris who was diagnosed with metastatic Pancreatic Cancer and died shortly afterwards at St Margaret's in October 2015.

The care that Chris received at St Margaret's was exemplary; he was very comfortable, ordered his meals directly from the Chef and had a room that looked out onto a beautiful Garden. As a family we are determined to help St Margaret's continue supporting patients and families across Somerset.

Thank you so so much to all of you who have donated in memory of Chris (currently over £5000!). If you can spare a few quid to spur me on through the wet and cold Winter training, I would appreciate it enormously.

For those of you with Instagram, you can follow (some of) my training at @RunnerBenj!

Big love and thanks,

B xxx
