My Story

Every day, seven young people aged 13-24 hear the words “you have cancer”.

Cancer doesn’t just devastate their health. It threatens to take away everything they care about – their identity, their independence, and their dreams.

Teenage Cancer Trust funds specialist nurses, youth support teams and hospital units within the NHS to provide the very best care and support during treatment and beyond, making sure cancer doesn’t stop young people living their lives.

They’re the only UK charity dedicated to meeting this vital need.

We are delighted that a 60 year old father and 22 year old son have the opportunity  to run this wonderful marathon together for such a great cause .
