September is Make a Will Month.

We have joined with Best Solicitors to encourage our supporters to make or update their Will this September.

Making a Will gives you the opportunity to make sure the people and causes that matter to you are looked after in the future.

Support for Dragonfly Cancer Trust helps us create lasting memories for young cancer patients with limited time, while supporting their families through incredibly difficult circumstances.

💜A very special good luck message for Team Dragonfly…

Our wonderful Young Ambassador Ellie Sturdy has recorded a lovely message for our Great North Run runners ahead of the big day! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Ellie has a very personal connection to Dragonfly. Her friend Kian was supported by Dragonfly during his cancer journey, and she speaks so beautifully about him in her message. 💜

Knowing that the money our incredible runners are raising helps us continue supporting young people and their families makes challenges like the Great North Run even more meaningful.

So from Ellie - GOOD LUCK TEAM DRAGONFLY! 🥹💜
