We are running the marathon in honour of Lauren’s daughter Nellie Mae Lane aka ‘the squishy girl’. That was the name we all used to call her, so it’s only right that’s our team name!! Nellie was diagnosed with a childhood cancer called Neuroblastoma at just 6 months old. She fought an almighty battle, but fell asleep with the angels on the 7th March 2021 at just 14 months old. 4,500 children and young adults are diagnosed with cancer in the UK, every year. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. We continue to fight for past, present and future, in the hopes our Nellie will be proud and one day, the battle will be over.
