My story

Babons Cancer Support was started by my best friend’s family in honour of her grandma, lovingly known as Babon, after she passed away from cancer in 2022. It’s such a special charity, created with a lot of love, and I’ve seen the amazing work they do to support people affected by cancer. I’m incredibly proud to support it.
This cause means a lot to me personally too — like so many others, my own family has experienced the pain of losing loved ones to cancer. So, this run is for them, for Babon, and for everyone facing this fight. Running 26.2 miles is going to be a challenge, but knowing it’s for something so meaningful keeps me motivated.
Every donation — big or small — will make a real difference. Thank you for being part of this with me. 💜


Thank you for checking out my page. Making a donation is fast, easy and secure thanks to Give as you Live Donate. They'll take your donation and pass it onto Babons Cancer Support.
