Fundraising for Target Ovarian Cancer
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
As a family we have been affected by various cancers and we want to say Thank you to this charity for their support and to help support other families going through what we are. This is just the start of the many events we are going to be doing.
I will be training for:
some running events( shin splints dependant)
A variety of events through out the year
The challenge of the Yorkshire 3 peaks in June.
I will face my fear of not only flying but skydiving from 10,000 feet.

Each year, over 22,000 women will be diagnosed with ovarian cancer, and 14,000 women will die from it. The symptoms aren't always present or clear, leaving the 5 year relative survival rate at 45%. When diagnosed and treated in stage 1, the five-year relative survival rate is 92 percent! Unfortunately, only 15 percent of ovarian cancers are diagnosed in stage 1, making survival from ovarian cancer much worse than many other cancers. In addition, there is a lack of effective treatment options, and research into new treatments lags significantly behind other cancer types.
That's where Target Ovarian Cancer can make a difference. Almost 40% of their funds go towards research and early diagnosis. They also provide many support services for those who are affected. Won't you join me to raise funds for an organization that can make such a difference in women's lives?
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.
