My Story

I am proud to be running the 2025 TCS London Marathon with Young Lives vs Cancer to ensure no child faces cancer alone.  I'm running for this amazing charity for a very special little girl  Olivia Butler age 5.

In June 2023 aged 4 years old Olivia was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia. Olivia's treatment will go on until August 2025. She's a little solider , so brave. She takes every that's thrown at her. Her smile is infectious. Every step I take running the marathon is for Olivia and all those other young children out there fighting these awful diseases. 

Join me in supporting a good cause.  By sponsoring me, your contribution will make a huge difference to the lives of children and young people with cancer.  Whether you donate £5 or £500 you will be making a big impact.  Thank you for your support.  

Every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer.  Young Lives vs Cancer helps families find the strength to face everything cancer throws at them. We'll face it all together - but we can't do it without you.   

Thanks so much
