Story

I am running the Leicester Half Marathon for LOROS Hospice on Sunday 1st October 2023. I am participating in memory of my cousin in law Jessica Melbourne who tragically lost her fight to a very rare cancer, AdenoSarcoma with Sarcomous Overgrowth. During her fight, LOROS provided unlimited support and did everything possible to help achieve her bucket list. This is my chance to help raise awareness and funds for LOROS so they are able to continue to do such a fantastic job for those who are in need. 

As many of you will know I am not in the best of shape these days,  so will be putting in everything I’ve got to do this half marathon. Please dig deep and help support terminally ill patients and their families at a time when they need it most.
