I'm running a 5k to raise money to beat cancer sooner
In memory of
Soleil Solomonides & Irene Xeni Antonopoulou
Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save lives. Although this is out of my comfort zone, I have decided to push myself a little and do this for such an amazing cause. I am doing this in memory of my best friend's mum, Irene. This is the least I can do for her and it is something that fills me with so much joy and pride. I'm now doing it for my aunt too who had passed away today (14/7) after a really short battle with cancer. It really shattered me... I've also had so many friends who have lost their loved ones recently and honestly this is what gives me 'the big push' to do this! Hope you can help me during these two upcoming months since your support will be really important during my preparation! Since every little bit counts, please help me support all these people who are still BATTLING so they can come out winners! Thanks everyone for taking some time to read my story! P.S. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s groundbreaking work, so please feel free to sponsor me now :)
