In loving memory of my Nan Lyn, Bobby Moore and all cancer angels
Fundraising for Cancer Research UK’s Bobby Moore Fund
Fundraising for Cancer Research UK’s Bobby Moore Fund
In February 2009 my Nan Lyn died after a brave fight against bowel cancer, my footballing hero Bobby Moore also died from the same illness.
When my Nan died I decided I wanted to do something special in her memory and decided to raise funds and awareness to save other people from dying from the same illness.
Over the years I have completed many charity challenges, organised events, visited schools, businesses and sports stadiums to share my story, I have also appeared on TV multiple times to raise as much awareness and funds as I can.
My story has travelled far and wide and I often receive names of cancer angels from their friends and family members, I complete my challenges in their memory and to date I have honoured over 500 angels, their names feature on my challenge t-shirts. I have run, walked and cycled over 3000 miles in their memory.
Fundraising is a huge part of my life and something I really enjoy, I have not set a target for my fund raising because I want to raise as much as I can and keep going, my target is a cure.
