Story

Hello! Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

On 26th September this year I will be running a half marathon in London to raise money for Leukemia and Lymphoma Research, as many of you will know I have a very strong personal reason for fund raising for this fanastic charity.  For those who don't know there is a brief outline why below.

23rd July 2006 I went to see my hematologist for what had become a routine check up only to find that my blood count was very low.   Unfortunately my Hodgkin’s Lymphoma had returned and I started eight months of chemotherapy in September.

Those eight months were pretty bleak and I have never felt so sick, I am so lucky that my cancer responded to the chemo.  Treatment behind me I want to give something back that is why I am asking you to sponsor me. 


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Leukaemia Research gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
