Over the bank holiday weekend, 55 inspirational people took on running challenges across the country to raise money for Anthony Nolan.

The runners have raised over £15,000 for Anthony Nolan by completing the BUPA Great Manchester Run, BUPA London, and events ranging from a 5k to a full marathon in Edinburgh. Collectively, the runners covered an incredible 820 miles between them.

Sarah Squires, Events Co-ordinator at Anthony Nolan, said, ‘It was an incredible weekend and we were so impressed with how well our runners did across the country! It costs us £100 to add each potential donor to the register, so fundraising really is a vital part of what we do.

‘Congratulations to all runners who took part in the weekend’s events and thank you so much for supporting Anthony Nolan.’
