Story

We (Julie, David and Olivia) are taking part in the 5 (or in our case 10!) x 5 Challenge!The 5 x 5 Challenge is a running/walking challenge to raise money for Cavendish Cancer Care. We will collectively be running/walking 10 5ks in just 1 week this August - as you may be aware, Julie has been suffering with her back for 2+ years, so this is a major challenge for her to walk any distance. Cavendish Cancer Care is a Sheffield charity dedicated to improving the quality of life for those living with cancer and their loved ones - it is a charity very close to our hearts as cancer has affected us and our family in many ways.For the last 30 years they have been supporting people affected by cancer, including carers, young people and children, by offering free-of-charge packages of therapy and support. They are working everyday to provide support to people via telephone and video link, because no one should face cancer alone.
