My Story

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. My father was an incredibly special man, he was so kind, very humble & oh so funny. His sense of humour was something that never left him, even in the most difficult of times. He accomplished so much in his life & he touched so many peoples lives. He always wanted people to be the best version of themselves, he instilled belief in people & whilst I didn’t always make the right decisions in life or take the right path, I knew he was so proud of what I’d achieved. He battled cancer for four years & he did it so courageously & always tried to remain positive throughout, even through the hardest days, but sadly it took him too soon in the end. He came to watch me participate in the Great South Run 10 years ago & whilst I don’t think I’d manage that distance again, I thought I’d try a distance where I know I have to push myself which would be a fitting tribute to him. Thank you for reading this & if you’d like to donate to a worthy cause then thank you in advance. X
