My Story

I am running the Royal Parks Half Marathon on October 12th and the Athens Authentic Full Marathon on November 9th in aid of CRIS Cancer. Having both lost family to cancer and having close, young relatives currently suffering from cancer this cause is very close to my hearts. Being a cancer researcher at the Nuffield Department of Surgery at the University of Oxford, I witness on a daily basis how important the support of CRIS is, to both patients and researchers.

CRIS is the catalyst that enables me to bring hope to patients with very limited choices. CRIS is an international charity that funds research into pioneering new cancer treatments to give the best chance of survival to patients who do not respond to conventional treatments. By stepping in where there are gaps in funding, as well as collaborating and building alliances worldwide with top research institutions, CRIS supports research scientists to speed up innovative therapies – bringing hope to thousands of cancer patients.
