Campaign by Solving Kids’ Cancer UK (RCN 1135601)
Bibi was diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma in 2018 at 2 years old. She was clever, sarcastic and absolutely fierce. She captured everyone's hearts with her larger-than-life personality and sense of fun.

Story

We're doing a half marathon dressed as Chase, Rocky, Skye, the yellow one, the other one, the stupid chicken and the ridiculous mayor as part of a fundraising campaign to help our beautiful daughter Beatriz get pioneering cancer treatment abroad - that could cost hundreds and thousands of pounds.  

At age two, she was diagnosed with neuroblastoma - a rare form of childhood cancer. Since then she's spent nearly half of the year in hospital, had endless injections, general anaesthetics and unpronounceable chemotherapy drugs. 

She's about to start a new NHS trial but there's no guarantee it will work - and if that happens we'll need to seek pioneering treatments in Barcelona or New York. 

So we're fundraising with an amazing charity www.solvingkidscancer.org.uk who support children and families with neuroblastoma.

Any money we don't use for treatment will be used to fund research and to help other families going through this nightmare.

Want to join the patrol? Let us know! You can never have too many pups on a MISSION PAW!
