I’m raising as much as I can to beat cancer now!
Cancer is happening right now, which is why I’m raising money right now for Cancer Research UK. 2018 has been a crappy year thanks to cancer. My uncle, Robin, who was like another Dad to me, passed away in April not too long after his diagnosis of Bowel Cancer, aged in his 50s. In May, Heather, a youth leader who was there for me for near enough a decade lost her long and hard fight with cancer, aged in her 30s. Then in November, Alex, who at a time was one of my best friends as a teenager, was so strong in her short battle with cancer and passed away in her early 20s. Three people taken far too young in under a year, all with a lifetime ahead of them. Cancer is real and taking lives every day. Please donate to my page today and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. There's no time to lose!
