Story

I am running the London Marathon in memory of my late mother-in-law Jo Stanley. In the last month of her life Jo received help & support from the local Macmillan nurses.

Macmillan Cancer Support is funded entirely by donations. To thank Macmillan I am aiming to raise money in order to support their efforts in helping others affected by cancer.

One in three of us will get cancer at some point in our lives. Cancer affects us all and we can all help to make peoples experience of it better.  

I will be training hard & am hoping to complete the London marathon in a respectable time for a 54 year old 

My biggest challenge isn't getting through the training or the event itself, but securing the financial support to ensure that Macmillan can continue to provide this vital service.

Please sponsor me & help to make my efforts worth while.Many thanks for your anticipated generousity and visiting my fundraising page. I promise to give all sponsors an update on my training progress & the result of my marathon.  

Every little helps!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Macmillan Cancer Support 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.
