Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Those of you who know me, will know how much I love the outdoors, cycling being one of my passions since early childhood. This is why I thought, what better way to do my bit and help raise awareness and funds for three very worthwhile charities. I will be joining a group of likeminded women to take part in a cycle in Kenya in Feb 2012. A small part of the proceeds will help the women's cancers in Kenya too.

I'm sure concern over Breast, Ovarian and Cervical cancers must be close to the hearts of many of you too.

Women! what would we do without them? I can imagine some of our men coming up with some funny witty comments there, and I like that. A sense of humour. Isn't that what gets us through many a difficult time. Whether it's grannies, mums, sisters, daughters, aunties, nieces, wives or fiancees, friends or colleagues, somewhere along the line, our lives may well be touched by the effect one of these cancers. Let's just hope that advances in research and medical treatment can make such a difference. So I am asking you to dig deep or even just a little and donate what you can.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now. May I take this opportunity to say thank you for your donation or even simply for taking the time to read my page. Many thanks, Penny
