Caroline's double marathon and Mikey's first marathon
Fundraising for Breast Cancer Care
Story
Hello, we're embarking on the Paris marathon... Will our marriage last 26.2 miles in the most romantic city in the world...
Two weeks later (bearing in mind it takes 1 day per mile to recover from a marathon), Caz will pound the streets of London for a further 26.2 miles.
Why are we doing this? To both challenge ourselves and raise funds for a worthy cause.
Every 10 minutes someone hears the words: "it's breast cancer". They’ll probably feel frightened and may feel overwhelmed by information; their family and friends may feel the same way too. Breast Cancer Care is there for them all - there for anyone affected by breast cancer.
Their expert Helpline and information-packed website provide caring support and guidance to anyone facing this illness.
Here are examples of how your donation can make an immediate difference:
| £2 | Provides a suitable headscarf, through their HeadStrong service, for a woman who has lost her hair through treatment. |
| £5 | Provides a comprehensive, easy-to-understand information pack for someone newly diagnosed with breast cancer. |
| £10 | Teaches someone how to be breast aware for life at a local workshop. |
| £25 | Trains and supports a member of their Nursing Network for a year to improve the care of people with breast cancer. |
| £50 | Provides a HeadStrong appointment for a woman to prepare for possible hairloss from chemotherapy by gaining practical support and information. |
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. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
Thank you
