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.

Many of us have our own experiences with Cancer, whether that is a a personal battle, a loss or close family and/or friends who are currently going through their own battles.

My mum is currently battling breast cancer, I have friends who have been lucky enough to beat Cancer, but unfortunately I have recently supported close friends through the loss of an immediate family member (a loving, young sister / daughter / mother / wife). Life can deal a cruel hand at times and we must continue to support such amazing charities that do so much for us all during these difficult times.

All sponsorship will be greatly appreciated.
