Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
- On the night of 10.05.14 I will participate in the London MoonWalk – a full walking marathon (40km) through the streets of . We set off from Clapham Common just before midnight (wearing decorated bras, if the weather is warm enough) and I hope to finish within 8 hours.
- Please support me and help me help Walk the Walk raise essential funds for Breast Cancer charities.
Walk-the-Walk (see http://www.walkthewalk.org) is a major benefactor of Breakthrough Breast Cancer. But it also provides vital start up and pump-priming monies for all forms of research into breast cancer, from major laboratory-based clinical investigations and drug trials, through to smaller scale supportive but essential projects such as Cool Caps (see http://www.macmillan.org.uk).
There have been enormous advances in the early detection and treatment of breast cancer in recent years, but still in 2014 one in eight women will develop breast cancer at some time in their life, and the older a woman gets, the more likely she is to develop the disease. And although breast cancer is primarily a disease of women, it affects men too. So research into its prevention, diagnosis and treatment is vital. Your donation could make a very real difference not just to someone in your family or your circle of friends, it could even make a difference to you!
Thank you so much
