Story
Sadly, on the 13th August 2013, John Henaughan passed away after a long battle with pancreatic cancer.
Whilst we want to celebrate everything about Dad's life and the effect he had on family and friends, we also want to raise awareness and funding for the research and treatment of Pancreatic Cancer (one of the most aggressive cancers).
To help put this disease into context:
Forty years ago few children survived childhood leukaemia. Now the survival rate is 80%.
Forty years ago only 46% of women diagnosed with breast cancer survived for five or more years. Now that figure is also 80%.
Forty years ago only 3% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer survived for five or more years. That figure is still only 3%.
As a tribute to John, and to raise money for the Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund, Matt and Emma will be running the Royal Parks Half Marathon in October this year.
Any donations will be gratefully received. Thank you.
