Help Beat Childhood Cancer
Hi there,
I’m joining the race to help beat childhood cancer by taking part in RBC Race for the Kids for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children’s Charity.
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.
The money raised from RBC Race for the Kids will help build the Children’s Cancer Centre at GOSH. 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.
It would mean so much if you could please sponsor me and give whatever you can. My fundraising page is: https://race.gosh.org/fundraisers/matthewmurphy-phillips
Together we can build it. Together we can help beat childhood cancer.
Best wishes
Matthew

RBC Race for the Kids 2025
GOSH already cares for children with the hardest to treat cancers, and new treatments are giving hope to children and their families. But these advances have outstripped GOSH's current cancer facilities.
We need a new home for breakthrough treatments and pioneering research, so we can save more children's lives. And because cancer shouldn't get to steal anyone's childhood, we need a place that's more than a hospital – a place that's a school, a playground, a garden, and so much more.
Please consider sponsoring me. Together, we can build it. Together, we can help beat childhood cancer.
