Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
This year I will be taking part in the Great North Run for Pete's Pancreas Project.
In November 2011 Pete was diagnosed with a rare form of pancreatic cancer at the age of 62, a month into his retirement. He underwent major surgery on 15th December at the Freeman Hospital Newcastle, to have this removed, along with his spleen.

Pete’s Pancreas Project in conjunction with the research team at the specialist HPB surgical centre at the Freeman Hospital Newcastle aim to:
- Set up a UK registry of ACC based at the Freeman Hospital.
- Collect retrospective and prospective demographic, treatment and outcome data of patients with a diagnosis of ACC
- Facilitate the movement of histological tissue samples from other specialist centres to the Freeman Hospital for analysis
