Event: Four Nations, One Team Challenge, from 1 April 2021 to 30 April 2021
We can't all be physically together at the moment, so as part of our Hopeful Futures Campaign we want to unite the nations through our Four Nations One Team challenge.

Story

We will be completing a 100km virtual route for the Myeloma UK Four Nations, One Team Challenge. None of us are 'real' runners so this will be a challenge for us all. We will be fitting runs inbetween teaching (Dave and Laura), reopening a busy salon (Amanda - at last!) as well as parenting!

We are raising money for Myeloma UK in memory of Dave's amazing father Martin Parsons, who passed away just before Christmas last year, after a 13 year battle with the disease. Back in 2013, Dave, Laura and Dave's sister Kelly all did a skydive for Myeloma UK and raised an incredible amount for this amazing charity. Martin was there with us that day and was so proud. Throughout his battle he showed such strength and determination and we would like to raise this money to help others who are still fighting. All money raised will help support the vital work that the charity do for this rare and incurable cancer.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you for your support. Together we will create a hopeful future for everyone in our myeloma community.
