Why World Cancer Research Fund?

Every day around 1,100 people will hear the words ‘you have cancer’. Over 420 of these cases could have been prevented, that’s a staggering 155,000 people every year. World Cancer Research Fund, are passionate about reducing this number.

As part of an international network of charities, they’ve been funding life-saving research, influencing global health policy and informing the public since 1982.

While society continues to search for a cure, their prevention and survival work helps people to live longer, healthier, and happier lives – free from the devastating effects of cancer. The money I'm raising plays a huge part in keeping this going.

My Road to the 2027 TCS London Marathon Begins! 🏃‍♀️💜

Friday 17th Jul

Welcome to my fundraising journey!

I am incredibly honored to be running the 2027 TCS London Marathon as part of Team World Cancer Research Fund. This is more than just a race—it’s an opportunity to help fund groundbreaking research that is working to prevent cancer and save lives around the world.

As a registered nurse, I care for patients and families every day, and I’ve seen the impact that cancer has on so many lives. That experience has inspired me to take on this incredible challenge, combining my passion for running with my commitment to making a difference.

Over the next several months, I’ll be sharing my training, race preparation, fundraising events, and the highs and lows of marathon training. There will undoubtedly be early mornings, sore legs, and plenty of miles, but knowing that every step supports vital cancer research will keep me moving forward.

If you’re able to support my journey, whether through a donation, sharing my page, or simply cheering me on, I would be so grateful. Every contribution—no matter the size—helps fund research that gives hope for healthier futures and brings us closer to preventing cancer.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. Together, we’re running toward a world with fewer cancer diagnoses and more lives saved.

Let’s make every mile matter. 💜🏃‍♀️🇬🇧
