Shine York 10k 2018
Fri 12 Oct 2018
I'm walking at the York Shine Night Walk as part of our fight to beat cancer!
My partner Gill was diagnosed with breast cancer last year and has bravely fought through chemo, surgery and radiotherapy to beat it. However, Gill and people like her cannot do that without the help of the superb NHS and organisations like Cancer Research UK. We are walking to raise money but also to recognise and say thank you to all of the wonderful professional people who have cared for her and have motivated her to succeed against this horrendous disease. Each year Cancer Research UK’s scientists get closer to beating cancer, and they’ve helped double survival rates in the last 40 years. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please sponsor me if you can. The walk is only 10K and I reckon even I can do that!
CAUSE
Breast cancer
With almost 140 women diagnosed every day, breast cancer is the most common cancer in the UK. And, although rarer, around 350 men are also diagnosed with breast cancer every year. The good news is more than two-thirds of women now survive 20 years or more. Help Cancer Research UK find new ways to diagnose and treat the disease.
