Thank you for raising money for life-saving work. All the money raised is being used to help beat cancer
Still want to donate?
I'm giving up my best friend (alcohol) for an entire month to raise money for cancer research.
In memory of
Peggy Deacon
Anyone that knows me knows I love a drink.. Or 20.. At least twice a week. And I'm not ashamed to say I enjoy it. I'm 25 with no real responsibilities, and my social life and circle involves drinking on a regular basis. So this is going to be really tough for me. We all know someone that has been affected by cancer either themselves or friends/family. And we all know how life changing it can be. Last year £53 million was invested in to research to detect cancer earlier which is vital. And a further £35 million invested towards researching causes and prevention. This is all thanks to cancer research donations. I want to raise £100 at least which seems like a drop in the ocean but what reason do I have to not do this? For the sake of not getting drunk, spending money that in all honesty I don't have, to feel like shit the following day... Or I could be one of the many people trying to help others. I know which I'd rather do 😊
