We're raising as much as we can to beat cancer

In memory of

Liz Newman and Richard Dunne

My Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our fundraising page. We are doing a 14 mile race together on Saturday 21st March around Lake Coniston in memory of two very special people who both lost their lives after a brave journey with lung cancer in the last six months. Declan's cousin Rich last October and our beloved Mum in January. Mum and Rich both loved being outdoors in nature and loved the Lake District. This race claims to be one of the most beautiful in the UK. It's not going to be easy. Training has been difficult in between all of the recent storms but hopefully we will have done enough. We'll be thinking of them both and their own determination and bravery every step of the way. Cancer Research is such an important charity and we hope that with continued support they will be able to make more progress in understanding and treating the disease. If you'd like to support us we would be very grateful. Mark, Declan and Vicky xxx

CAUSE

Lung cancer

Each year more than 43,500 people are diagnosed with lung cancer in the UK. We urgently need to drive progress so that more people survive their disease. Cancer Research UK is at the forefront in lung cancer research and is funding various projects to tackle the disease head on. This includes the TRACERx study, Cancer Research UK’s largest investment into lung cancer to date. This study has already transformed our understanding of how lung cancer evolves and is continuing to shed light on how to prevent, detect and treat the disease.
