Harriet's Race for Life

Unfortunately, as time goes on more and more people are affected by Cancer, and more and more people become statistics. I reached my late teenage years and had been incredibly fortunate in that I was able to say I had not known anyone close to me be affected by it, however this soon changed when a number of close to home diagnoses sprung, seemingly out of nowhere, firstly beginning with Sara Brooks, and then continuing on with my Grandma, and then a current diagnosis which could not be any closer to home. The idea that so many of us are affected by Cancer in one way or another, is terrifying - but a positive mindset can make the world of a difference. I hope to help contribute to that difference by giving whatever I am able too, whether that be time or money raised. Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life Pretty Muddy to raise money and save lives. 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 sponsor me now.
