In memory of
Bev Saunders
7th Jan 1960 - 17th Apr 2018
This is the first fundraising event I've taken part in since we lost my lovely mum, Bev, in April 2018. She was on the straight and narrow after a successful operation to remove cancerous cells around her left boob, had gone through the majority of her chemo and was getting set for radiotherapy – but she never got that far. She died after a blood clot – a common side effect of her aggressive treatment – travelled to her heart. She was 58. These past 12 months or so have no doubt been the toughest of my life. Doing, or even talking about doing things in my mum's memory is still massively difficult. But this is the start of much more to come – so watch this space. Whether you can fling us a quid, a fiver or even more, whatever you donate will be going towards not only life-saving cancer treatment, but also providing much-needed information to those going through cancer and those affected by it. Thank you x
