Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am signing up to a bunch of challenges to raise money for Cancer Research UK. My very dear friend Mark Bamforth recently lost his brave battle with Cancer (he was 56) - my cover picture is me with Mark taken in Nov 2022. I would like (in his memory) to make a difference to others so that they may have better chances to survive through the accelerated research funded by this fantastic charity. And there is hope, as my dear colleague Federica Marti (36) is proving. She's about to return to my team after a year away battling blood cancer - a battle, I'm delighted to say, she is winning!

I already completed over 400 miles of walking leading up to my 55th birthday last December...

Now I'm going to add a single 20 mile walk on Friday 27 October (this is the annual walk I do with my company AVEVA in aid of CALM).

Then it'll be the Cambridge Half Marathon on Sunday 3 March 2024. 

I'll finish with a 100 mile bike ride (date tbd) in the late Spring.

So any contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a difference.

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Many thanks for your continued support.
