Come along and get involved in your local Big Fun Run 5k!

Big Fun Run is a series of 5k untimed runs staged within scenic settings throughout the UK from July to October. All you need to do is find the one closest to you!

The Big Fun Run series is strictly for FUN where it’s all about relaxed exercise. No times, no pressure, no sweat - just some easy moves and lots of laughs. The runs are suitable for all the family where you can accomplish your personal goals and remember under 5s can take part for FREE! 

 This isn’t about Olympic level athletes charging about in record times. It’s about mums with prams, dads with toddlers, groups running together, fancy dress and a fantastic fun mix. Are you getting a picture of something a little bit different?

Nothing will motivate you more than fundraising for a cause you really care about, so what are you waiting for?

As part of the Pseudomyxoma Survivor team, you'll receive one of our shirts (as long as we have your size in stock!). In return, we ask you to pledge to raise £120.

About Pseudomyxoma Survivor

Pseudomyxoma Survivor is a non-profit organization, run by patients and caregivers. We have a thriving support community providing emotional support to anyone whose life has been touched by pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) as well as appendix cancer and other peritoneal surface malignancies. As these diseases are so rare is so rare, having a global presence gives the community a scale where it is able to offer genuine support and advice around the clock – both emotional and practical. Patients, caregivers and families have joined together to create an online ‘family’.

Together we:

  • offer practical and emotional advice on managing symptoms and all aspects of living with this rare disease
  • manage a one-to-one buddy system
  • fund small grants to help patients and caregivers with the impact of treatment
  • support research

As a non-profit organisation, we’re completely dependent on voluntary donations. We’re too small to have offices or staff; the charity is run entirely by volunteers. Our patron is Sean Hepburn Ferrer. Sean’s mother, Audrey Hepburn, passed away shortly after being diagnosed with PMP. Sean also has a special interest in rare diseases more generally and was Rare Disease Day Ambassador for Eurordis and NORD.
