My Story
I have lost too many family members to this disease. Notably my lovely brother when he was just 15. He passed in 1978 of a cancer that today is curable. This is proof that our efforts to raise money works. Cancer is still 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.
