Fundraising for John King Brain Tumour Foundation
On May 19th Oscar Rees be taking part in the Aix-En-Provence Ironman 70.3.
Other than challenging himself, over the 1.9km swim, 90km bike & 21.1km run in the South of France heat Oscar is raising money and awareness for 3 incredible charities which are close to his heart given the 3 legs of a Half Ironman:
Oscar is supporting the Eve Appeal following his mum’s diagnosis with womb cancer in 2022, The Royal Marsden for their work treating her and helping so many others close to him affected by the cruel disease and Project21 to follow on from the great work Richard Sullivan began.
About the charities:
The Eve Appeal – The UK’s Gynaecological Cancer Research Charity raising awareness and funding research into five gynae-cancers: Womb, Ovarian, Cervical, Vulval and Vaginal.
The Royal Marsden – One of the world’s leading cancer hospitals which treats over 59,000 NHS and private patients each year.
Project 21 – Set up in March 2022 by The Sullivan family after Richard’s diagnosis of a brain tumour, to fundraise for the John King Brain Tumour Foundation which raises funds for St George’s Hospital to improve outcomes in neurosurgery.
A note from Oscar: ‘Thank you for all your support and generosity. You’ll be helping me over the final kilometres and hopefully to a glass of Rosé at the finish line!’
