MALVERN Squash Club captain Dale Wilde is running in his ninth London Marathon to raise money for two very good causes.
As a diabetic himself he is not surprisingly raising money again for Diabetes UK (formerly the British Diabetic Association) but this year he is also supporting another very personal appeal. Alastair was Dale and Lorraine Wilde's god-son, diagnosed with a brain tumour just after his fifth birthday and sadly he died about a year later. Alastair's parents have set up Alastair's Appeal Fund to raise money for the Children's Hospital Brain Tumour Research programme working to identify the specific genes, which cause these tumours to develop. Everything that Dale can raise will be shared between the two appeals.
