Charity
Cancer Research UK is the world’s leading charity dedicated to beating cancer through research. Over half of all cancer research in the UK is carried out by our scientists. We have discovered new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer that together have saved millions of lives across the world. We have been at the heart of the progress that has already seen survival rates double in the last thirty years. But one in three of us will still get cancer at some point in our lives. Our groundbreaking work, funded entirely by the public, will help ensure that millions more people will survive.

Kate and Simon London Marathon page

Hi, thanks for visiting our page. Kate and I are running the London Marathon on 25th April 2010 to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
This will be my 3rd marathon, however this is Kate's first and as you can see from the photo, inexperience has not stopped Kate taking the lead on race strategy.
Cancer Research is a charity that Kate and I both feel strongly about and I'm sure like most of you we have been close to people affected by cancer. Please give generously and help us hit our fundraising target.
Thanks
Simon and Kate
