Guy is more than just a cousin - he is one of my closest friends. The news of his cancer diagnosis last year shocked us all and our gratitude to the Head and Neck Team for the amazing job that they did to save Guy is enormous. I want to celebrate Guy's recovery by joining "Guy's Recovery Run Team" and helping raise money so others can also benefit from the amazing skills of this specialist Team.

"Guy’s Recovery Run Team" is aiming to raise money to purchase a microvascular training station, for trainees to develop their skills in microvascular surgery such as the complex head surgery that saved Guy in March 2023.

Having run the Bristol Half Marathon in 2022 Guy didn’t really feel the need to do it again! However, getting himself back to the point of being able to run a Half again has now become a recovery target for him. Guy wanted to find a way of supporting Head & Neck Team & the amazing work they do. This has spiralled massively and now approx. 25 friends, colleagues and family are joining him in either 10k or Half Marathon as "Guy's Recovery Run Team"!

I have been training hard over the last few months and am now looking forward to doing my best on 19 May as I join the team running the Bristol Half Marathon - my first ever half marathon.
