My Story
My sisters and I were hoping to join Race for Life this year with our mum. So many friends and family members have been affected by the disease and we'd never managed to arrange a date to do the 5k together. But then, in February, we were shocked to learn that mum had Non Hodgkins Lymphoma (a type of blood cancer). With Race for Life events postponed and COVID making it difficult for families to meet up, we decided to come together - while apart - and do something special to cheer mum up. This is the result: https://youtu.be/vK3k1YXgu1A We hope you like our little video. After a year where vital cancer trials have been delayed, the Race for Life is more important than ever. Every pound you can donate will go towards Cancer Research UK’s ground-breaking work, so please sponsor us today!
