Story

In April 2018, I will be running the Virgin London Marathon, in aid of Ovarian Cancer. This charity is a worthwhile cause and one that is immensely close to my heart. 

In December 2011,I lost my dearest mother to this very disease, and despite her struggle and bravery, on this occasion, Cancer won.

I please urge that you help me in my effort to raise £2,500 by donating generously to this charity. With the rise of cancer cases in the UK, charities such as Ovarian Cancer are becoming increasingly stretched with the help, support and research that they are able to provide. By raising money, we are able to help them help others. 

The loss of a loved one is irreplaceable, but the fight continues everyday, especially for those suffering and battling with this horrid disease. Every donation will be greatly appreciated, and could make a difference to the lives of so many.

We are the UK’s leading ovarian cancer research charity. In the UK only 1 in 3 women live more than 10 years after diagnosis. We are working to better prevent, treat and detect ovarian cancer, so that by 2032 at least half of women with ovarian cancer live for 10 years.
