Story

On the 27th April 2025 I will be running the London Marathon in aid of Guys Cancer Charity.

As some of you may know, my Dad is currently fighting stage 4 cancer, and has been under treatment for over 4 years. He is receiving treatment at Guys hospital in London by an amazing team of oncologists and doctors. He is currently on a new drug which has worked wonders, but at some point this drug is unfortunately going to stop working.This amazing charity have treated Dad for 5 years now, and continue to support him in his current ongoing cancer treatment.

I see how much work goes into this project, therefore I am running the London marathon on behalf of Guys Cancer to hopefully raise £3,000 for the charity to help them keep changing lives.Guys Cancer Charity uses donations to help fuel innovation and advances in cancer care, fund pioneering new approaches and advances in cancer treatment and enhance support for the cancer team.

Thank you for reading my story on why I'm running the London marathon for Guys Cancer. All donations are much appreciated.

With a focus on patient-centred care, we combine state-of-the art-equipment, novel clinical trials, passionate staff and the most modern cancer research with compassion and effective psychological support so that our patients and their loved ones can feel fully supported throughout their cancer journey. We do this because we know each person and every cancer is unique - we don’t want to treat them all the same. Guy’s is the leading UK provider of care and treatment for people with cancer and we’re dedicated to helping patients navigate what can be the most challenging time of their lives. With all our services located under one roof within our bright and welcoming Cancer Centre, we’re able to offer seamless care every step of the way, from diagnosis, through treatment, and after, in an environment that doesn’t feel like a traditional hospital. We know that the landscape of cancer is changing. More people are being affected, but we’re at an exciting point in time when promising new therapies are being developed and research breakthroughs are waiting to be made. It’s crucial that we continue to fund the innovative research, treatment and exceptional care that takes place at Guy’s to ensure we keep going above and beyond what the NHS alone can provide as we help more people cope with and survive cancer.
