ALL IN FOR OLLIE

All proceeds go to ALL IN FOR OLLIE

Ollie is a kind, fun-loving, and hardworking 33-year-old. He is a new husband to Ruth, a proud older brother, a friend, a colleague, and is living with a rare Stage 4 cancer.

In 2019, Ollie was diagnosed with Ocular (Uveal) Melanoma in his left eye. After undergoing plaque radiotherapy at Moorfields Hospital and successfully treating the tumour, life began to return to normal.

In October 2025, just weeks after marrying Ruth on one of the happiest days of his life, devastating news changed everything. The cancer had spread to his liver, and what should have been a time filled with newlywed happiness and plans for the future suddenly became a whirlwind of scans, hospital appointments, and life-changing conversations.

There are over 200 rare cancers, and although they are termed “rare”, they collectively make up 47% of all cancer diagnoses. Tragically, rare cancers are often overlooked in terms of research, funding, and available treatments.

Ollie’s cancer, metastasised Ocular Melanoma, is an extremely rare and aggressive disease. Around 50% of cases spread from the eye to the liver, and once this stage is reached, there are unfortunately no effective treatments available through the NHS.
