We Support head and neck cancer patients to improve the journey through the disease

Story

Face up Cymru is a charity I set up over 15 years ago to provide support to head and neck cancer patients. We don't have the pull of other major cancer charities but we raise money to directly help. We have funded a dietician as well as two speech therapists. Also we have funded a dietetic assistant who goes around the ward making milk shakes. Patients love her rounds !! We have also bought equipment eg food blender. Lollipop maker - fantastic for patients who have such oral problems. You will know where your money is going. Please help us to help them.  To raise awareness and funds I’ve walked up Kilimanjaro, then there was the Velothon and now one 2 hr stage on the turbo trainer around New York trailing well behind Geraint Thomas !!
Today -16/4 I did the 2 hr around London - the bottom is really sore so am looking forward to tomorrow

I'll keep you updated !
