I’m running 100 Miles in October for Young Lives vs Cancer.
I’ll be running 100 Miles in October, from the 1st to the 31st, to help raise vital funds for children and young people with cancer.
Young Lives vs Cancer help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. With practical and emotional support. With someone always there. A social worker that gets it.
With places to stay near hospitals. With campaigning to make health, welfare and social care work better. To champion, to problem solve and bring about change.
Every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. Make a donation and show your support today.
Just a £26 donation 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.
Thank you for your support.

Wednesday 30th SepHello folks! 👋
It’s that time again… 100 miles in October for Young Lives vs Cancer! 🏃♀️💪
You might remember that I had cancer myself last year. Thankfully, I’m now in recovery, and I’m incredibly grateful to the amazing researchers, doctors and nurses who helped get me here.
But going through cancer has made me realise just how different the experience can be when you’re a child or young person. Cancer doesn’t just affect your body — it can turn your whole world upside down. It can mean missing school, putting your education or career on hold, worrying about money, losing independence and having to deal with things that most people your age never have to think about.
That’s why Young Lives vs Cancer is so important to me. ❤️
They support children, teenagers and young adults with cancer, as well as their families. Their support goes beyond treatment — from providing emotional and practical support, helping families with money and benefits, supporting young people with education and work, and helping families with somewhere to stay when they need to travel for treatment.
Having experienced cancer myself, I know how much it can mean to have people in your corner when everything feels completely overwhelming. And I honestly can’t imagine having to go through that as a child or young person.
So this October, I’m putting my legs through it again and attempting 100 miles! 😂🤦♀️
I’d absolutely love your help. Please share my fundraiser so I can reach as many people as possible, and if you’re able to donate, even a small amount would mean so much to me and could help Young Lives vs Cancer continue supporting young people and their families.
And finally… please send me some motivation when I inevitably start questioning why on earth I signed up for this. 😅😂
Thank you for supporting me and, more importantly, supporting young people living with cancer. ❤️
So proud of you🩷
