My Story
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. We lost Dad to cancer 10 years ago this year and I had hoped to put on a fundraising event in his memory. Unfortunately covid restrictions meant that was not possible so I decided to try and raise some funds on my own - perfectly covid safe! In lockdown many will have been managing 10,000 steps a day really easily in their daily exercise but last year, following a knee cartilage operation, I was diagnosed with first stage rheumatoid arthritis. Some days walking is a breeze, others not so much, but I know exercise is key to helping with RA so I'm going to use this as an opportunity to kick start my regime to help that. And hopefully at the same time raise some money in loving memory of Dad and all those we have lost over the years and as a thank you to Cancer Research for their work which has helped others survive.. Please give if you can. Many thanks Jo xx
