Story
Our team is divided into family and friends, we are trying to raise money for the second biggest cancer killer, Bowel Cancer. My family suffer from a disease called Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP), this is an inherited disorder characterized by cancer of the large intestine and rectum. People with the classic type of FAP may begin to develop multiple growths in the colon, as early as their teenage years. Recently we lost my best friends brother at the age of just 40, leaving behind a fiancée and a daughter aged 11. Just before he passed away, we found out his daughter also carries the gene. As a family, we would like to raise awareness and funds towards research into FAP, through the charity Bowel Cancer UK, so my friends niece , along with other families, who are also suffering from the disease, have the best chance of survival in the future. Our next venture, is the Manchester marathon. This will take place on the 14th April 2024. Please show your support by donating what you can to this amazing charity.#TeamDaz
