A TEAM of runners from Oxford’s much loved Silver Star Charity will be pounding the streets of London in a bid to raise £50,000.
They will run for the Silver Star maternity unit at John Radcliffe Hospital, Oxford, to raise cash for a state of the art scanner.
The charity has raised more than £100,000 through its London Marathon team in the past 15 years.
The team comprises charity founder Professor Chris Redman, Jon Blackmore, Heather Talbot, Linsey Cresswell, Sarrah Mason, Sarah Jones, Andy Powell, Kevin Kemp and Jon Baker.
Prof Redman said: “Each year our London Marathon team put in a huge effort on our behalf.
“We would like to take this opportunity to send a huge thank you to our present marathon team and all our past marathon teams for helping to support the unit.”
