Story
Thank you for taking the time to visit to my JustGiving page.
I am running in the Baxters Loch Ness 10km in order to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support to thank them for the work they have done to assist my Dad through his fight with Cancer.
Recently my Dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer and without the support of Macmillan Cancer Support I don't know how we could have got through these past few months as a family.
They have been pillars of support for everyone in my family and they do fantastic work, I would like to do whatever I can to repay them for the services they have provided.
Any donation is welcome, no matter how big or small! Macmillan relies on fundraising efforts in order to be able to provide the support and care that they do.
In order to give you an idea about what your sponsorship could mean please read the list below:
-
£10 could pay for 20 copies ofThe cancer guide . This Macmillan booklet can help somebody recently diagnosed with cancer, and their families, to understand cancer, its treatment and the help available
- £24 could pay for a Macmillan physiotherapist for an hour
- £68 could run a typical small Macmillan Information and Support Centre for an hour
- £100 could enable the Macmillan Benefits Helpline to help people affected by cancer to claim £2,691 in benefits to which they are entitled
- £156 could run our Cancerline for an hour providing, on average, 13 people affected by cancer with essential information and support. In peak hours the Cancerline receives, on average, 76 calls per hour.
- £918 could fund a Macmillan Nurse for a working week.
I hope you will be able to dig deep and help me raise some much needed funds to support Macmillan for all their hard work.
Thank you!
