My Story
Hey guys, some of you may not know but I’m doing the race for life this Sunday in memory of my beautiful dear friend Alice . Alice was only 24 when she was diagnosed with leukaemia, and fought long and hard for 3 years in and out of Cheltenham hospital and back last year received a bone marrow transplant, and was given the all clear. We all went out to celebrate with beers and pizza. Sadly 3 months ago Alice had the devastating news that the cancer came back and I’ll never forget the text saying she has only got days to live...she was right, 3 days later Alice died on her 27th birthday. Please sponsor me, we can all make a difference. Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 10k 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. Donating through this page is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with Cancer Research UK.
