Story
Last year we lost Kelly Stabb to Bowell Cancer. Kelly was the most amazing a kind person who would've done anything to help you in life.
In memory of her and to continue to spread her kindness to others, myself, Charlotte Wickenden, Lloyd Blacker and Magnus Christie, who were friends and colleagues of Kelly are attempting to cycle 75miles in The Great West Sportive on the 15th September 2019.
The money raised will go to Bowel Cancer West and the Kelly Stabb award:
Bowel Cancer West are pleased to announce the establishment of a new annual award to fund projects specifically related to
supporting young patients (those under 40) with and at risk of getting bowel cancer.
The Kelly Stabb Award is named after a young mother and police woman from Torbay who dedicated so much of her time to supporting our cause, despite being diagnosed with advanced bowel cancer.
We dont yet know why incidents are increasing; whether its age, diet, lifestyle, misdiagnosis or even a different kind of cancer, but through further research, we certainly hope to find out more. By investing in ways to both improve patient support through research and further training for medical staff as well as playing a vital role in raising awareness across all generations not to ignore symptoms, we hope to make a significant impact on survival rates.
Please support us all to make this award a success.
