Orin’s run is dedicated to the memory of his sadly departed (step) son Daniel De-Gale, the inspiration behind ACLT. His run also celebrates the 20th anniversary of the lifesaving work of the ACLT and aims to raise £20,000

Orin said “I am not a runner, however any pain or weariness that I experience during the training or the run will always be tempered by the realisation that it has no comparison to the pain and suffering that Daniel and other patients have had to sadly experience on a day to day basis”.
