Story
On June 29th, I'll be cycling from Glasgow to London in order to support Ovarian Cancer Action! This ride will consist of 450 miles, over 5 days...and your support would be amazing!
This is a cause that means a lot to myself, Dad and my sisters as sadly, 10 years ago, we lost our Mum Bonny Rowe to Ovarian Cancer
Right now, a Woman in the UK dies every 2 hours from Ovarian Cancer and those being diagnosed today are only given a 46% chance of being alive in 5 years' time.
Treatment for ovarian cancer is not as advanced as treatment for other, better-known cancers, like breast and prostate cancer. Any donations at all, small or big, would make such an incredible difference and really contribute towards vital research and development.
This ride is not only helping to raise funds, but importantly to also raise awareness. Ovarian Cancer really is a silent killer, it's symptoms are typically hard to spot. For further information visit;

Thank you for your support :)
