Emma Aindow-Gregory, lived with stage four bowel cancer for four-and-a-half years before her untimely death in December 2023, aged 49. Since then, her family have worked to set up a charity in her memory.

The Orange Foundation was established in tribute to Emma, and to help others who are living with cancer. The aim is to provide support to those individuals and their families, through five segments of practical help.

” The Foundation has recently welcomed its first fundraising event. Family friend and Lancashire filmmaker, Garth Dew, is running the Kendal to Preston 50-mile ultramarathon in aid of the charity. Garth aimed to raise £2000 before his race on 11 May 2024, and has already beaten that target. Garth said: “I decided to run this race for a cause, choosing The Orange Foundation to support the charity and to pay tribute to Emma, who herself was an exceptional ultra-runner and inspiration to all.
