Helen's Race for Life
Colchester 5k 2019
Sun 14 Jul 2019 - Sun 14 Jul 2019
This year I am running in dedication to someone close to a lot of people’s hearts. Jackie wilks ran with us last year and had her own battle of cancer. She fought so hard and without the research being done she wouldn’t of been able to have the treatment to keep her here for that bit longer. She was an amazing lady and unfortunately she isn’t here to run with us again so I want to raise money the help all those other people suffering and hope they get to spend a little bit more time with there loved ones too. Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k 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.
