Cancer is a scary thing. I'm doing this for my mum & everyone I know that has lost their lives or is still fighting π
In memory of
Peter Brooks & Dawn Webb
My Story
Cancer is something that has been a big part of my life. When I was just 8 my mum was diagnosed with Cancer. Thankfully she kicked butt πͺ, she's had a few times since then like many others where she's had to go back to hospital to stop it coming back. There are people I know have beaten it too, but also sadly I know people that have lost their battle to Cancer. If it wasn't for Cancer research myself and my sister would have a very different life right now as my mum wouldn't be here. I couldn't honesty be prouder of her courage and strength with everything she's been though ππͺ πWhich is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save livesπ ππ 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UKβs groundbreaking work, so please could you sponsor me in honour of my friends and your friends and loved ones who have lost their lives to this horrific disease. The more support we give research the greater the help we can give to the brave people fighting Cancer right now and those who have not yet met their battle. Even if you could donate the cost of a coffee from your favourite coffee place would be amazing. ππ Donating through this page is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with Cancer Research UK.
