I’m joining the race to help beat childhood cancer by taking part in RBC Race for the Kids

Hi everyone. I know this page has my mummy’s name in bold at the top of this page but this challenge is for me, Hridhaan. I really want to help children who are suffering from horrible cancer. I am really blessed to have good health and it makes me sad to see children my age and younger not being able to enjoy the things I do because they are really sick. I’m taking part in GOSH Charity’s family festival and fun run, RBC Race for the Kids, with my mummy and papa, to raise funds to help build the new Children’s Cancer Centre at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH).

Cancer is the biggest killer of children aged one to 14 in the UK. But a child doesn’t have to die from cancer for it to take their life. Living with cancer is different for every child. It can mean countless rounds of debilitating treatment. Seeing your siblings through the windows of an isolation room. Not knowing when you’ll sleep in your own bed again. It can mean missing out on parties and playdates and trips to the park. It can mean missing the moments that make up a childhood.

But we won’t let it.

We won’t let cancer steal childhoods.

Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) already cares for children with the hardest to treat cancers. Pioneering research is underway to find the most effective treatments and cures, which give hope to children and their families.

But the rapidly changing pace of cancer medicine has outstripped GOSH’s existing cancer facilities., and the hospital needs a new home to help deliver breakthrough therapies. Somewhere that will treat the child, not just their disease.

That home will be the new Children’s Cancer Centre at GOSH.

The funds raised from RBC Race for the Kids will help build a world-class facility with children at its heart.

A place where children have access to play and education alongside pioneering treatments. Where families can stay together through some of the hardest moments. Where access to outdoor space is a priority, and a focus on nutrition helps fuel recovery.

Please sponsor me to take on a the 5k for GOSH Charity. Together we can build it. Together we can help beat childhood cancer.
