Online Community
Going through dark times can be a very lonely and isolating experience. At KMMT we want to extend Karen’s hospitality to create a chatroom for our families. Somewhere where you can ask difficult questions, seek support and share advice. We do this through our Facebook page.
Over the years we have built up a community of hundreds of people who have been through the same experience. We hope that this will be a powerful way for you to make use of all the things you never wanted to learn about living with leukaemia.

Here’s the PERFECT opportunity for those of you - we know there are so many - who have taken up running during lockdown. The physical and mental benefits of running are well known. So why not stretch yourself that bit further and sign up to the legendary #virginlondonmarathon 🌟🌟🌟 We have spaces available for the rescheduled race on Sunday 4th October. And don’t worry, if the race doesn’t end up happening then you’ll get a guaranteed place for 2021. Like all small charities, the Karen Morris Memorial Trust is working hard to keep its fund-raising on track this year. Why not lend your support by signing up to run one of the world’s most iconic races for us? 🏃♀️🏃🏃♂️ For further information to take part email info@kmmt.org.uk 🌟🌟🌟

It’s starting to feel a lot like Christmas...🎅🏼 Thank you to all our wonderful singers from the North Newnham Residents Association and to everyone who came to listen. We raised £165 which the Karen Morris Memorial Trust will use to support leukaemia patients and their families through Karen’s four Homes from Home throughout the UK

“Many, many thanks for providing a lovely home for us during my husband’s bone marrow transplant. I was able to cook all his meals which enabled his early recovery. Such a pleasant experience not to have to worry about accommodation at a stressful time. Heartfelt ‘thank you’.”
