Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

Why am I doing this?

I'm excited to be running my FIRST EVER 10K race on the 8th July in London, and raise money for Cancer Research. 

A good friend of mine is currently undergoing surgery to remove tumours from both his liver and lung.  I'm hoping that by running the race alongside my son Richard, we might contribute to the marvelous work that the Cancer Research charity is able to do that helps people who are facing the same challenges.

From the Cancer Research web site:

Our work on the causes and prevention of cancer has saved millions of lives across the world. Over the next decade we aim to save many more.

Cancer survival rates have doubled in the last 40 years and our work has been at the heart of that progress.

We fund the work of more than 4,000 scientists, doctors and nurses throughout the UK and support over 200 clinical trials, testing vital new drugs and treatments for cancer.

 

So please dig deep and donate now.
