Alison Shannon

London Landmarks Half Marathon

Why I’m fundraising...

I lost my beautiful sister, Emily, to this awful disease. Emily was only 32 years old when she was diagnosed in May 2024 with the rarest form, which was immune to all treatment available. Emily very bravely fought this with everything she had but lost her battle on 30th September 2024. Emily and I had signed up to run this together. I am determined to complete this for her and she will be with me every step of the way.  

I’m taking part in the London Landmarks Half Marathon 2025 to raise funds and awareness in aid of Target Ovarian Cancer, the UK's leading ovarian cancer charity. They target what’s important to stop ovarian cancer devastating lives – that means symptoms awareness, life-saving early diagnosis, better treatments and support for everyone affected by ovarian cancer. 

Please support my fundraising, and together we’ll transform the future for everyone diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
