Story

I will be running the Beachy Head Marathon on the 21st October to raise money for the charity Solving Kids’ Cancer and courageous little Teddy.

Teddy is 4 years old and mad about trains! In July 2022 he was diagnosed with high-risk neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive childhood cancer that has a 40-50% chance of long-term survival at diagnosis. His parents, Katherine and Alastair are currently fundraising for potentially lifesaving treatment, either to get their son into remission or to try and keep the cancer away if his frontline treatment does go to plan.

'We can't believe neuroblastoma has such a low survival rate - if we can get Teddy extra treatment not currently available on the NHS which may potentially save his life, and raise awareness of the trials that are out there so in the future they are available to all children, then we have to do it '.

To my wonderful friends and family, please help me to raise money for this important cause.

I know I’ve asked before and I really appreciate every time you dig deep and donate ❤️.

For those of you thinking “but she’s already run this once, where’s the challenge?” 2019 was a long time ago…4 years and 2 kids later, this is probably set to be the biggest running challenge of my life!
