My Story

💛 100 Miles. 100 Children. One Goal. 💛

This September, I’ll be walking 100 miles for Childhood Cancer Awareness Month — one mile for each child diagnosed with neuroblastoma every year in the UK.

In 2021, our world turned upside down when our Quinn was diagnosed with this aggressive childhood cancer. We were one of the lucky families — he is now in remission. But not every family gets to hear those words. Along the way, we’ve met brave little warriors whose stories ended far too soon and those who are still fighting.

Neuroblastoma UK is a small but mighty charity working tirelessly to fund research into more effective treatments and a cure. Without organisations like them, children will continue to face harsh, outdated treatments — and families will keep hearing the words no parent should ever have to hear.

Every donation, no matter the size, brings us closer to a world where neuroblastoma doesn’t take our children.

If you can, please sponsor my 100-mile walk and help give these children the futures they deserve. 🌟

Thank you from the bottom of my heart — and from every mile I walk. 💛
