Fundraising for Macmillan Cancer Support
Story
Thanks for supporting the fundraising that Siobhan and I are doing for Macmillan.
We’re tying up our laces and testing ourselves to support an incredible charity.
They are currently supporting my best friend through her Stage 4 journey. As a non-runner the thought of running 13 miles is terrifying me but a challenge has to test you right? My aim is to cross the line ... I'm not focused on time I just want to complete it!
I'm not going to dwell on how emotional this is, as she isn't, her courage and positive mindset is inspirational (although she'll hate me saying that). I am so incredibly lucky to have her in my life and this goes a very little way to show her that. I want to support everyone who needs to use the Macmillan services, your journey shouldn't be complicated by lack of nursing, funding etc.
A huge shout out and recognition for Siobhan the beaut who joins me on this run, not sure how I talked you into it but am so glad I’m not on my own and I’m glad it’s you running with me. We’re going to rock this!
Macmillan gives people with cancer everything they’ve got. If you’re diagnosed, your worries are Macmillan’s worries. Macmillan’s doing whatever it takes. But without your help, Macmillan can’t support everyone who needs them.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and secure. Your details are safe, JustGiving - they'll never sell them or send unwanted emails. 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.
