Date: | 23/04/2017 |
The incredible Kirsty Crozier, MDS nurse in Oxford, MDS UK Committee Member and Oxford Group Meeting Coordinator together with Claudia Richards, is running the London Marathon for MDS UK Support Group.
Kirsty is not fundraising – but she is already doing wonders to raise awareness – as the only MDS nurse in the country to run for us!!!!
This is an incredible achievement as it is close to impossible to get a running place in the London marathon these days, if you are a small charity.
Kirsty joins Alec Holah, who will be running and fundraising in memory of Gavin Hepburn.
We would like to find a way to share Gavin's story with Theresa May and Jeremy Hunt - who to date have not issued a proper apology to the family.
If you are able to join us on the day - 23rd April - please let us know. It would be beyond wonderful to have a group of people shouting support for Kirsty and Alec.
Kirsty is a Senior Advanced Nurse Practitioner for Myeloid Disorders at OXFORD UNIVERSITY HOSPITALS NHS TRUST.
She says:
"I have been a Haematology/Oncology Nurse since 1996, and am still so passionate about improving the care and the information available and experience of patients."
