Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
I have chosen to run the Chester Half Marathon for Cancer Research because everyone knows someone who has been affected by cancer in some way. I am hoping that one day the work that Cancer Research do will lead to finding a cure and eventually a prevention for the disease. I'd like our children to grow up in a world that no longer lives in fear of getting cancer.
I am running in memory of the people that my friends and family have lost to cancer, including my amazing Nanny, Margaret Watt. I have been inspired to run after watching a member of one of my best friend's family bravely overcome cancer treatment...a true hero. A half marathon is a walk in the park in comparison!
