We had under 6 months with mum from diagnosis; I'm walking all over cancer and I need your help!

In memory of

Eileen Atherton

My Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. She was known as Eileen, Mum, Grandma, Auntie Eileen and a good friend to those who knew her. To her children, she will always be Mum... and what an amazing Mum she was! She was caring, generous, loving, kind, giving and "Simply the Best"!! She loved to help others: in her home life, at work and wherever else she found need and had many great and loyal friends as a result, all of which knew they could rely on her. Cancer devastates peoples lives; its a dreadful disease that not only affects those diagnosed with it, but also the family and friends who love and care about the person affected. So, this March I've decided to try and raise money by walking 10,000 steps a day (5.5miles) throughout the month to help fund life-saving research and beat cancer sooner. Help me Walk All Over Cancer and sponsor me, please. Any amount is very much appreciated and by ensuring your donation is made with "Gift Aid" it allows Cancer Research to claim an extra 25p for every pound donated, so it really is important to tick that box! Donating through this page is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with Cancer Research UK. On behalf of my family and in memory of our Mum, thanks for helping.

CAUSE

Lung cancer

Each year more than 43,500 people are diagnosed with lung cancer in the UK. We urgently need to drive progress so that more people survive their disease. Cancer Research UK is at the forefront in lung cancer research and is funding various projects to tackle the disease head on. This includes the TRACERx study, Cancer Research UK’s largest investment into lung cancer to date. This study has already transformed our understanding of how lung cancer evolves and is continuing to shed light on how to prevent, detect and treat the disease.
