Our friend Danielle, a mother, wife, daughter, sister, aunt and friend, was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer in 2022. She and her family dropped their lives in Malta, moved back to the UK, and are now in fight mode to battle cancer.

Danni and her husband Rory's friendship is very close to Jonathan and my heart. After ten years of working overseas, Jonathan and I decided to move to the UK to start our new married life. At the same time, Danni and Rory moved back from the USA. All three worked at the same company and lived in the same apartment complex. Our journey here in the UK started at the same time.

Being neighbours with Danni and Rory, we often spend the weekends, New Year's Eve and summer events together. Danni is a positive, supportive and strong woman, so when we heard this news about Danni. We were devasted and didn't know how to help.

I am running Half Marathon at AJ Bell Great Manchester Run on Sunday, 21 May 2023, alongside Danni's husband, family and friends. We are raising money for https://www.christie.nhs.uk/

Christie is the largest single-site cancer centre in Europe, treating more than 60,000 patients a year, and the first UK centre to be accredited as a comprehensive cancer centre. 

Running Half Marathon is nothing compared to what Danni and 55,900 women and their families go through each year. A small donation will go a long way to support Christie and their great work. 

Thank you for your donation to support Danni's fight against breast cancer and thousands of other women.
