Run with Purpose in 2019

Next year at least 20 more young people in recovery from cancer will have the chance to get their life back on course after treatment, thanks to the amazing Trust fundraisers who ‘Ran with Purpose’ this autumn.

The Great South Run which took place yesterday (21 October) was the Trust’s last running event of the season and what an amazing day it was.

Alex was inspired to sign up after having volunteered on our trips this year: “I’ve been blown away by the Trust, volunteering has been amazing, emotional and inspiring and drove me to take on this challenge.”

Last Sunday (14 October) saw the Trust team travel to London for the Royal Parks Half Marathon. Starting and finishing in Hyde Park, it is the only half-marathon that takes runners through central London.

The Trust's Fundraising Manager, Lindsay Nehorai was amongst the 16,000 participants that entered and loved the scenic route, waving to the queen as she passed Buckingham Palace.

Luckily we have managed to secure 15 places for 2019.

We’re so grateful to everyone who entered one of our events this year,  never underestimate the difference your support makes to the lives of young people in recovery from cancer.
