Alex Coote fundraising for Friends Of The Cancer Centre

I’m taking on the Belfast Half Marathon to raise money for Friends of the Cancer Centre in memory of my amazing mum. 🩷 The support they gave to my mum and our family during such a difficult time meant more than words can say. Running this half marathon is my way of giving something back, so they can continue providing the same incredible care, support and comfort to other families when they need it most. If you’re able to support me, any donation, no matter how big or small, would be hugely appreciated. Thank you so much for your kindness and support.🌟
