I'm taking on the Run 100 Miles Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer. I will be running 100 miles in October to support children and young people with cancer. 

Young Lives vs Cancer help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. Make a donation and show your support today. 

  • £26 could fund an hour of support from a Young Lives vs Cancer specialist social worker ensuring children, young people and families always have someone by their side throughout their cancer journey.
  • £70 could pay for a night in a Young Lives vs Cancer Homes from Home, a free place for families to stay close to specialist hospitals when their child is going through treatment, keeping families together

Join me in supporting a good cause, your contribution will make a big impact, whether you donate £5 or £500. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support.

My story

Tuesday 30th Sep
Hi friends,

I'm taking part in Run 100 Miles October 2025 to support Young Lives vs Cancer to raise funds for children and young people with cancer. 

For 22 years, I couldn’t run. Every time I tried, I ended up in pain, so I gave up on it — even though I secretly dreamed of running marathons.

Five months ago, everything changed. I finally got the right diagnosis and treatment, and it gave me back the freedom I’d been missing all my life. Suddenly, running wasn’t just possible — it felt like a gift.

Now I’ve set myself a huge challenge: running 100 miles. It won’t be easy, but that’s exactly the point. For me, it’s proof that tough times can pass, and that life can surprise us with second chances.

I’m running to support children and young people with cancer. They’re facing challenges far greater than mine, and I want them to know there’s hope — that better days can and will come.

Every mile I run is for them. And with your support, together we can make a real difference.

Every £1 raised will help Young Lives vs Cancer support children and young people (0-25) and their families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them.
