Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.


As some of you will know my Dad was diagnosed with Mesothelioma last year, and as you do i got straight on the t'internet to do some fact finding. What became clear very quickly was that most people know little about this condition and therefore it is  poorly funded. Unfortunately this will become a bigger problem in the future as more and more people are diagnosed with Mesothelioma, which is a Cancer caused by contact with Asbestos.To find out more check out their website at  www.mesothelioma.uk.com 


I would like to raise money and awareness for Mesothelioma UK as they rely on donations like yours to provide a free help-line, and a website with information on treatments and advice on this disease for patients and their families. They also fund the Support group at Papworth Hospital where my Dad is being treated. 

So to do this I am attempting to run the Windsor Down Tow Up Flow half Marathon on 25th July!  Do feel free to come and cheer me on!


Thank you for supporting me
