My Story

Thank you for visiting my Cancer Research UK Cycle 300 page. This September, before the end of the month, I will complete 300 miles on my bike for Cancer Research UK. I will be pedalling harder than ever because I want to raise money for life-saving research and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. In previous years this has been relatively easy for me, but this year it comes only 9 months since I had a near-fatal, bi-lateral, saddle Pulmonary Embolism in both lungs. I have a reduced lung capacity due to scarring in my lungs, and it is by no means certain that I will be able to complete the distance. I can certainly no longer do the big weekend rides. My expected recovery time is TWO years. Every penny makes a huge difference to vital cancer research so please show your support with a donation to my page.

CAUSE

All Cancer Types

Our work has helped double cancer survival in the UK in the last 50 years. Despite this incredible progress, there’s more to be done. Nearly 1 in 2 of us will get cancer in our lifetime. Help us carry out world-class research into the prevention, detection and treatment of more than 200 types of cancer.
