Our General Manager for our Patient Transport Service (PTS) is bravely taking on her third marathon next month to raise money for a cancer charity.

Joy Weldin, will take on the Bournemouth Marathon on 7 October, with the hopes of raising as much as possible for MacMillan Cancer Care.

This is will be the third marathon Joy has ever undertaken – and she is determined to complete it in less than four-and-a-half hours.

Joy said: “I’m really looking forward to the marathon. The feeling you get when you finish is awesome.

“It’s been challenging balancing training, a full-time job and a family, but it’ll all be worth it.”

Joy’s seven-year-old daughter Eva will also be running the children’s race ahead of the main marathon on the day.

Through her last two marathons in Chesterfield and Nottingham, Joy has raised a total of £1,600 for cancer charities, and she hopes to raise even more for charity this year.
