Sophie’s London Marathon

Sophie Speirs

As some of you know, I’ve been training to run the London Marathon this April—a huge (if slightly scary) goal of mine!

But I’m not just doing it for the personal challenge. I’m also running to raise money for two charities that are really close to my heart: Alzheimer’s Society and Cancer Research. Both do incredible work and have had a direct impact on the lives of my friends and family members recently.

With just 5 weeks to go, I’m equal parts excited and nervous to take this on. If I can raise some money for these brilliant causes along the way, even better!

Thank you for all your support!

Love Sophie x

See below for more information on my charities:

The Alzheimer's Society is the UK’s leading dementia care and research charity, which works to end the devastation of dementia by providing support, funding research, and campaigning for better care and a future without dementia.

Cancer Research UK (CRUK) is a charity that funds research into all aspects of cancer, focusing on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, with the goal of seeing three in four patients survive cancer by 2034.

I don’t know many people that haven’t been personally affected by either of these diseases, so any money raised will help fund the vital research needed to cure these devastating diseases. Thank you again x
