This Friday, we’re highlighting Joe, who took on the incredible 58km Jurassic Coast Walk in support of Maggie’s.

Joe’s fundraiser was inspired by a very personal journey. His wife, Catherine, shares:
“Last October, I was transferred from Bournemouth Hospital to Southampton after being diagnosed with Follicular Lymphoma. At the time, I hadn’t received good management of my care and was in a very difficult place emotionally. When I was told I would need chemotherapy, the lymphoma nurse directed us to Maggie’s.

I arrived in floods of tears and was met by Jo, who was incredibly supportive and reassuring. She signposted me to the stress management course run by Mike and Kim, which helped me feel more in control and better prepared for treatment.

As a family, we are so grateful for all the support we received, this was our way of saying thank you.”

Thanks to Joe’s amazing effort, he raised an incredible £1,220. We’re so grateful for their support and for helping ensure more people can find comfort, care and support when they need it most. 🧡

“What inspired me and Sophie to fundraise was my mum being diagnosed with cancer a few years ago, and losing my grandma in the same year. During my mum’s treatment, my dad and I found real comfort at Maggie’s. It’s a place that made us feel supported and less alone and we know it would have meant so much to my grandma too."

"Taking on the run together was incredibly special. The sense of achievement was amazing, knowing we’d not only done something positive for ourselves, but that every mile of training and the day itself might help make a difference to someone else’s life.”

For Dan and Sophie, running the New Forest Marathon was a way to give back and to help ensure as many people as possible can find that same sense of community, comfort and joy at Maggie’s. 🧡

If you’re feeling inspired and would like to run for Maggie’s, we’d love to have you on the team! Sign up here - https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/the-garmin-new-forest-marathon-southampton-2026-tickets-1988486311085?aff=oddtdtcreator
