The Giant Pledge
Help The Giant Pledge raise £1,000,000 and more to help beat childhood cancer working with The Royal Marsden Cancer Charity!
On January 3rd 2017 Vicki and James Woodall's four-year-old son George was diagnosed with cancer, a PNET soft tissue Ewing's Sarcoma. On New Years Eve coming into 2017, while waiting for his biopsy results, they set up 'George and the Giant Pledge' with an aim of raising £100,000 to help beat childhood cancer together with The Royal Marsden. They smashed that in two short weeks so upped the goal to a cool £1,000,000 which they hit in April 2019 while crossing the line of the London Marathon less than 30 months later!
None of the money raised is for George or his family, 100% goes to the children’s team at The Royal Marsden Hospital to help fund much needed research into childhood cancer as well as help The Royal Marsden team continue the outstanding work they do for children and families affected by cancer both locally and internationally.
