Event: Purple Wave 2023 in the Great Manchester Run, from 1 March 2023 to 21 May 2023

Story

This year I'll be running the 10km Purple Wave in a penguin costume with Gabby and Ellie, to support Cancer Research UK.

We all know someone whose life has been changed by cancer. That's why researchers in Manchester are working hard to improve how cancer is treated and help more patients with cancer get back to normal life. A brand new cancer centre will be opening soon. Designed to speed up research progress, it'll be a world-class centre bringing new hope to people with cancer.Amazing research will take place inside the new building, and by donating to my page today, you can be part of that.Cancer will affect one in two of us but with our help, Manchester can create a happier, healthier future for all.Please join me in supporting Manchester's cancer research by sponsoring me today!: www.manchester.ac.uk/cancerpuzzle.

Thank you!
