I’m raising money for Cancer Research
I am raising money for Cancer Research UK. My mum was diagnosed with Cancer in the summer of 2019 and I am running in aid of Cancer Research so they can continue the search for cures for Cancer. The process to recovery wasn't easy as the treatment involved some horrible operations on the throat to cure the cancer. Without charities like Cancer Research UK, a cure would have not been available so quickly and efficiently for my mum's treatment. She is now in recovery and fighting fit. With Cancer being on the rise at least 1 in 3 people are expected to develop Cancer in their lifetime. It is something that will effect us all during the course of our lives. However, due to research, Cancer survival rates are increasing. Cancer is something that you hear about frequently in the news and from friends who have experienced it first or second hand and you never expect it to touch you. Please donate to a great cause so that less and less people will be effected by cancer and have to experience what we and many other families have to go through.
CAUSE
All Cancer Types
Cancer survival rates have doubled over the past 40 years. Consistent progress is being made but improvements to technology and ground-breaking work offer new opportunities to find different ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer and improve survival rates even further. Help Cancer Research UK improve results even faster.
