On Sunday 7th April I will be running the 2024 Brighton Marathon for Sarcoma UK.

If you told me a year ago I would be running a marathon I wouldn't have believed you... However, fast forward to now, and after developing a huge passion for running I have signed up for the Brighton Marathon.

I have chosen Sarcoma UK as its a charity a close friend & his family have supported for a number of years and I wanted to use this opportunity to help further raise funds for Sarcoma.

Sarcoma is a type of cancer that develops in the bone and soft tissue. It is difficult to diagnose and one of the hardest to treat. By supporting me, we can help change this. Your donation will help researchers find answers, keep the specialist Support Line open, and raise awareness to improve treatment and standards of care.

Please consider donating, however large or small to myself and Sarcoma UK and give me that extra motivation I need to be able to cross the finish line on 7th April!

Your donations go so far in helping the sarcoma community:

- £1 could cover the cost of 10 texts to the support line

- £10 could be used to buy microscope slides to look at cells in minute detail

- £30 could fund one hour of use of a high-powered laboratory microscope

- £150 could fund the support line for a week

Thank you for your support.
