Story

Dave was a truly inspirational man who gave others hope and
strength to cope with their own sarcoma diagnosis and treatment. He made an enormous contribution to Sarcoma UK and also to the wider sarcoma community. His positivity was legendary.

Dave was diagnosed with a fibrosarcoma in his abdominal
wall 10 years ago, when he was 38. He joined Sarcoma UK’s Board of Trustees in 2014 and his commitment and dedication to the charity has been enormous. Dave was a champion for people with sarcoma and for the charity.

His wife, Anjula, a pillar of strength, has been by his side throughout his journey and remains very close to the charity. His daughters, family and friends have been the inspiration for Dave’s strength and determination during the past 10 years. Dave was realistic about the challenges he was facing but always remained positive. 

We will celebrate Dave’s life and achievements through our continued determination to improve the landscape for everyone affected by sarcoma.

He was, and always will be, our champion.
