Story

On Sunday April 21 I will be running the 2013 London Marathon. This has always been a personal ambition of mine and I have been lucky enough to gain a place to run for the Breast Cancer Care Charity. Many people can be affected by breast cancer throughout their lives. It may be you, family or friends, and as I have personally discovered it is very hard to see a person you love suffer from this horrible illness and the resulting consequences . Breast Cancer is now the most common cancer in the UK with 1 in 8 women being diagnosed within their lifetime which currently equates to around 135 women per day! 

 

Please may I ask for your kind donations in order for me to reach my target to give to this amazing charity. Your generosity will help assist Breast Cancer Care in providing much needed emotional and practical support and improve the overall standards of care for all breast cancer patients across the UK. Thanking you so much in advance!
