Jo takes on Dryathlon

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. This January, I’m taking on Dryathlon and going booze-free for one month to raise money for Cancer Research UK. Every penny makes a huge difference to vital cancer research so please show your support with a donation to my page. My personal story is that I lost my first husband to cancer 10 years ago. I've done several fundraisers over the intervening years, including Dryathlon and Race For Life. Sadly, I will never have answers as to what happened to my husband - the cancer was unbelievably aggressive and took him in a matter of weeks. There was no formal diagnosis other than 'metastatic spinal malignancy - primary unknown.' My wish is that nobody should have to endure what I did. I want there to be better treatment, better access, shorter waiting lists, more comprehensive support - physically and mentally. Ultimately, I hope and pray for a cure, no matter how far fetched this may seem. Please sponsor - not for you, not for me - for those battling, those who win and those who lose. We CAN make a difference. For the reader, this may not ring true, but it does for myself. As it has now been 10 years I want to smash my fundraising target. Please give generously - if you are able. Make sure you gift aid! And know that your contribution WILL help this cause, regardless of the number attached. Thank you
