One of the great characters of the very early days of The Bristol Hash House Harriers was Jo Tarzey. Sane, strong and clever, and lots of fun, everyone admired and liked her. Still do, I’m sure, although we have sort of lost touch over the years (possibly something to do with a running joke we had about rubber underwear, the origins of which I have fortunately forgotten).
Anyway, Jo and her former husband, Bob Redman, had two daughters, the older of whom, Ella, died last November as a result of bone cancer. She was twenty. Ella was keen to promote research into cancers that are common amongst young people and improving the facilities available for their treatment. I know everyone has their own favourite charities and we don’t like others telling us what we should be supporting, but, if you can, please give here:
