Story

Rich and Lou will both be running a total of 62 miles (a mile a day each)  during the month of January,  to raise money for Exeter Leukaemia Fund (ELF) in memory of Chris. For anyone who knows us well, will know that this will be a huge challenge as the only running we do is to the pub!! 

As a family we have experienced first hand how s**t cancer is, however this unbearable time was made a little easier by the facilities and help that ELF are able to offer.

If you are able to donate to this worthy charity, no matter how little, it really would mean a lot to us (as well as give us a large kick up the ass!).

Thank you!  

2020 has had a devastating impact on Exeter Leukaemia Fund (Elf)'s revenue with mass event cancellations and charity shop closures.Throughout the pandemic Elf have offered additional support to vulnerable blood cancer patients and families shielding in their homes. These services include delivering essential shopping supplies, medication prescriptions and telephone befriending for isolated patients.Over 600 patients with blood cancer and related conditions are treated at the RD&Es Haematology Centre each week. These life-changing conditions, affecting not only the patient but all those close to them. Exeter Leukaemia Fund (Elf) offers free individualised support to everyone who needs it. Our aim is to make life easier and less stressful during what can be a very difficult time.Your support will help Elf continue supporting patients and families, at home, in the community and at the RD&E Hospital.
