Story

We are raising money in memory of Rachel Dodds, on the behalf of The June Hancock Mesothelioma Research Fund (JHMRF).

"Because of her smile, she made life more beautiful".

Rachel was only 29 when she was taken from us with Peritoneal Mesothelioma, a beautiful, energetic lady with a true lust for life that I sadly never had the pleasure to meet, however her stories and reputation precedes her. Rachel was always up for a challenge but probably would have been late. With her selfless commitment she would happily put others before herself, without question. So it's very fitting to do this in her memory, and we hope to do her proud.

Andrew Dyer, Christopher Dawson and I are hoping to raise as much as we can for the JHMRF.

Established in 1997, JHMRF is the UK’s first and largest independent mesothelioma charity. We have raised more than £1.5 million, the majority of which being spent on quality research into the diagnosis and treatment of mesothelioma and the care of people with the disease.
