Story
Sadly more than one in three of us will get cancer at some point in our lives.
I think many of us have lost someone who we have loved dearly due to the battle of fighting cancer. My family (Matt Jupp, owner of Bootcamp Somerset) has been hugely affected by Cancer. My nan passed away before I was even born. My two uncles had Cancer in which one sadly lost the battle and most recently a close family friend and god mother to my sister also passed away from this terrible disease.
The last time I spoke to her was a happy occasion at my sisters wedding. I asked her which charities she would most like to donate to. She said that she most valued Cancer Research UK because of the incredible work they do.
Cancer Research UK is the world's leading independent charity dedicated to cancer research. They carry out scientific research to help prevent, diagnose and treat cancer. They have discovered new ways to beat cancer that together have saved hundreds of thousands of lives across the world.
This year myself and some of my most loyal clients from Bootcamp Somerset are hoping to raise a large sum of money for Cancer Research UK by taking part in the Bristol 10k run in May 2012. We are dedicating our run to all the families who have sadly lost loved ones to the battle of fighting cancer. We are going to train hard and run this race with pride!
Bootcamp Somerset has also entered the Clarke Willmott business challenge against other businesses! Some of us fancy a challenge!
Bootcamp Somerset would like to raise as much money as possible (at least £1000) in the next 5 months for Cancer Research UK so please help us and keep us motivated by making a donation to sponsor us all. Every little helps and will be greatly appreciated.
