We're raising as much as we can to help research into new cures for cancer

Story

As most of you know in 2016 Laura (Lolly) was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Two other close members of the family were also diagnosed with cancer in 2016. Laura’s mother Barbara and daughter Rachel are joining Laura to take part in the Race for Life in Aberystwyth to help raise money for Cancer Research UK. Research so far has improved treatment so it is more effective and less unpleasant, survival rates have improved and more people are living well with cancer. 1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime and for every diagnosis many other people are affected. So the chances are everyone will be affected by a cancer diagnosis in their lifetime. So please give what you can to support this worthwhile charity. Why Team Tortoise? – Slow and steady wins the race – we won’t be the first past the post but we will finish and do our bit to help Cancer Research UK to win the race against cancer.
