Grandad Ken
My Story
In November 2015 we sadly lost my incredible Grandad to a short battle with cancer. As well as Pretty Muddy, I am also running the 10K Race for Life in Folkestone with my Mum. My Grandad suffered from lung cancer, brought on by working with asbestos when he was younger, something of which should have been made illegal when all other countries made it so, however the UK failed to make it illegal early enough and so my Grandad developed lung cancer. I am fund raising in the hope of further research being carried out to detect all types of cancer sooner, in memory of my loving, one in a million Grandad who we all miss each and everyday.
