My Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my Fundrasing Page! Cancer is happening right now, which is why I'm taking part in a Race for Life 5k to raise money and save lives. In 2018, someone very close to me was diagnosed with a rare form of Cervical Cancer (Small Cell Carcinoma), this was so upsetting as Nikki has always been very close to my family and myself, and I would class her as another mother. Seeing Nikki go through rounds of Chemotherapy and numerous amounts of Radiotherapy was so upsetting, but we supported her through every single step and in December 2018, Nikki got the all clear and was cancer free, finishing her last round of Radiotherapy on New Years Eve which was amazing news! I will be taking part in The Race For Life in June 2019 for everyone who has been affected by cancer and to raise money and save lives, together we can and WE WILL BEAT CANCER! 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.
