Dentist set to run London Marathon for children’s cancer charity

1 min read People profiles
Greg Paysden, a dentist and supporter of children’s health, will be running the London Marathon in April 2025 to raise £10k for Children with Cancer UK.

Running alongside his close friend Tom Kemp, the pair are determined to raise vital funds and awareness for the charity that supported Tom’s daughter, Darcey, during her battle with a rare form of cancer.

A cause close to the heart

Darcey was diagnosed with cancer at just 18 months old. During her treatment, she required a full blood transfusion and received crucial support from Children with Cancer UK. Darcey is now in remission, and both Greg and Tom are eager to give back to the charity that played such a key role in her journey.

Greg said, “This isn’t just about running 26.2 miles. It’s about making a difference. Seeing what Tom’s family went through and knowing how much this charity does for children facing cancer has inspired us to push ourselves and raise as much as possible.”
