Together we walk!

In July 2025 my younger brother, James, was diagnosed with stage 4 Mantle Cell Lymphoma, a rare and aggressive form of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma. It is considered incurable however, the goal of treatment is to push it into remission for as long as possible. James began treatment under the Nordic Protocol and has also undergone a stem cell transplant. This was carried out at The Royal Marsden. James has suffered many set backs along the way but has remained immensely positive throughout. James, we are all very proud of you and love you very much. 

By donating to my page, you are supporting The Royal Marsden, a world-leading cancer centre so that their nurses, doctors, and research teams can provide the very best care and develop life-saving treatments. Together, we can save the lives of cancer patients everywhere. Please support me to help this amazing hospital and team continue their vital work. Thank you.

Walking 15 miles for The Royal Marsden: A journey for my brother.

Saturday 21st Feb
When I signed up for the 15 mile walk between the two Royal Marsden hospitals, I knew it would be a challenge but I also knew exactly why I was doing it. This walk is for James and for the incredible care The Royal Marsden has provided for him.
Walking 15 miles is nothing compared to what James has, and is still going through. It is, however, something that I can do - a way of saying thank you, to honour his strength, and to help ensure that other families receive the same extraordinary care from the Royal Marsden. 
Follow my journey as I walk for the Royal Marsden and walk for my younger brother.
