Story

Thanks for considering donating to me.

My sister challenged me to do the Great North Run. Unfortunately it has been cancelled for obvious reasons. I'm not a natural runner and the training has been hard. But I've got up to12 miles so far so don't want to waste my training.

I've chosen NALC as my charity as they are small, do vital work supporting people who have had laryngeal cancer and had to have their voice boxes removed (laryngectomees) and have recently had their funding stopped from another well know charity. 

As a speech therapist working in head and neck cancer laryngectomees form a big part of my caseload. So anything that supports their wellbeing is good in my eyes 😊
