In memory of
My Granddads
I am walking in honour of my Granddads and friends who have fallen victim to cancer. The time it took for my Granddad to be diagnosed to passing from pancreatic cancer was only 6 months. He deteriorated quickly and was robbed of the chance to see two of his children get married, meeting all his grandchildren and great grandchildren. I want to be able to say I helped raise money to fight against such a horrific form of cancer. Each year Cancer Research UK’s scientists get closer to beating cancer, and they’ve helped double survival rates in the last 40 years. But we can’t stop there. Only with our continued support can they turn this research into breakthroughs that save millions of lives. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please sponsor me now. Donating through this page is simple, fast and totally secure.

CAUSE
Pancreatic cancer
Survival rates for pancreatic cancer remain stubbornly low in the UK, often because the disease is diagnosed late and is difficult to treat. Help Cancer Research UK make progress in one of the biggest research challenges its scientists are facing – to find better ways to detect and treat the disease.
