Vicky started ‘Team Vickster’ with support from her friends and she now has an army of people taking part in various half marathons, Snowdon treks, BBQ fundraisers, Santa dashes, and even training and entering a team of 25 in the Great Manchester Run. This year, along with long-time collaborator, Andrea Howitt, Vicky took on the London Marathon, and raised over £7000.

She added: “It was such an amazing, special, emotional day which will be in our memories forever. We ran the London Marathon for a cause so close to my heart, and for my beautiful warrior mum. The pain and tough times through the race were worth it, knowing we were helping people with cancer. Together as part of Team Christie we have raised over £26,500 and will continue to keep raising money as long as we can.”
