Story

As many of you know we went through the terrible ordeal of one of our children, Layla, being diagnosed with cancer last year and going through all the subsequent chemotherapy and everything that goes with it.

We all were helped and supported so much by the Teenage Cancer Trust that we had to try and repay them in some way. We ran a half marathon in 2024 and are now preparing for the ‘big one’, London Marathon 2025.

When you’re told your child has cancer the world falls from under your feet and it’s charity’s like the Teenage Cancer Trust that are there to help and support you through the worst period of your life and they become a vital part of the support team that gets you through.
