Five year old Jack Brown has cancer of the nervous system. He's had treatment in this country, but only has a 20% chance of survival without specialist care in America to stop the cancer from returning. When PCs Mark Edwards and Chris Harding heard about his plight they knew they had to do something to help. So they teamed up with the NYPD, and ran over 26 miles in the New York Marathon to help raise money for Jack. PC Edwards said after the race "We knew that Jack's life depending on additional funds so Chris and I spoke to the NYPD to arrange the sought-after places." He added: "The officers from the NYPD were incredibly welcoming and the race itself went really well with us completing in 5 hours and 9 minutes鈥. The officers managed to secure pledges of 拢5000. But more funds need to be raised in order for Jack to continue his treatment. Mark and Chris are now planning further events next year to help Jack.
