Story

One of my dearest friends in the world, who I’m also proud to be able to call my business partner and the sister I never had, has been battling with breast cancer, diagnosed on Christmas Eve!

She has endured weeks of relentless chemotherapy, followed by the more recent and vicious rounds of EC, ensuring any remaining cells are obliterated, taking some of her beautiful hair with it. 

Through much of her treatment, Laura has continued to work for Urban Digital, supporting her clients and candidates on her recovery days. As much as possible, Laura has also continued to be a hands-on mummy to her gorgeous 4-year-old daughter but has had to miss out on months of playdates/children's parties and social gatherings, for fear of catching a cold/virus!  

Whilst Laura’s cancer has visibly gone and her outcome looks very bright, it's awful that a fit and seemingly healthy 40 year old, in the prime of her life, has been hit by this dreaded disease, robbing her of her normality and any plans she had for 2023. 

Shockingly, Cancer strikes 1 in 2 Men, and 1 in 3 Women, with large numbers of patients having a less than positive outcome. Terrifying odds! 

With all of the above in mind, I've decided to hike half a marathon in the Gower Peninsula, in July, in the hope of raising lots and lots of money for Macmillan Cancer!

Please give anything you can to help this almighty cause - plus I'm walking a bloody long way in sunny Wales, so I need all the encouragement I can get 😅⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🤪
