Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

PLEASE CAN YOU SUPPORT MY SKYDIVE - all funds donated on this page will go towards Age UK Lambeth (to donate to Pancreatic Cancer UK please also kindly visit my other fundraising page).

"Hi, my name is Cathi. During the last few years I’ve been on a life changing journey. In November 2018 I was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer. Fortunately, I was diagnosed early enough for the tumour to be removed. This involved a major operation lasting over 6 hours (Whipples procedure), followed by intensive chemotherapy. But even after this, scans showed what doctors felt were signs that the disease had returned and they wanted to start palliative chemotherapy.

That was nearly 2 years ago! And nearly 7-plus scans later, what the doctors saw has miraculously disappeared and my scans are disease-free! I am so blessed to be alive. Although my body has taken a bashing I work hard to keep fit, and continue to stand on my faith and help others.

I returned to work in January 2020 for an amazing charity supporting older people in South London (Age UK Lambeth). It’s always been part of my mission to give back to the community, even more so since my healing journey. The money raised from my skydive will be donated to two charities: Age UK Lambeth and Pancreatic Cancer UK. Thanks so much for your support." 🎉🎈💟👊🏾
