The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity

My Mum, My Best Friend

Last year, we walked the Marsden March for my Mum, Debbie 🤍
She was bravely battling stage 4 glioblastoma — a fight no one should ever have to face, yet one she faced with strength, dignity, and so much love.

I had the honour of her joining me at the finish line and crossing it together.

What started as a walk in her name became something so much bigger. Together, with the support of friends, family, and clients we raised just over £24,000 for The Royal Marsden.

An amount that still takes my breath away.

Every step was for her and everyone who has or is suffering
Every donation was a message of love.
Every pound raised was hope — for better treatments, more research, and for other families facing the same devastating diagnosis.

Mum is no longer with us, but her legacy is. She continues to inspire kindness, courage, and togetherness, and I will forever be grateful to everyone who walked beside us, donated, shared, and supported us in her name.

She is missed everyday and will always be missed , a love of a Mother and her Daughter is a love and bond that lasts forever

This was for you and always will be, Mum. Always 💕
