So I've decided to do dry January in memory of both my mam and my dad. Mam passed recently, following a fall and dad from cancer, earlier in the year.

Mam worked for Cancer and Polio research, a number of years ago, so I know the charity was close to her heart. Dad also helped, so he was involved too. 

My kids also lost their other grandma, who passed, from cancer,  just 4 weeks after dad. 

Cancer touches all of our lives, in one way or another. I'm sure you all know someone who has either recovered from, suffering from or has passed from cancer. I couldn't decide on a specific cancer charity to donate to, hence choosing cancer research, not only for mams connections  but to ensure that all are helped through this important research. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
