Story

My brother Clive was only 62 but has now lost his fight with cancer. His journey included having a brain tumor removed successfully but the primary was in his lymphatic system and despite chemotherapy and radiotherapy it was just too much for him. Clive passed away on 10th April 2022.

I want to raise funds to support the Macmillan Cancer Support charity and the main event will be the Dedham vale 26.4 mile marathon on 30th July 2022. 

I will be doing other fundraising activities starting with a full head shave on 30th January 2022.

For March I will be doing the Macmillan Plank Challenge

My target was to raise £250, but the headshave was so popular that a massive £1,805 was donated. I have now increased this to £2,000 and have my fingers crossed that I can get even more support from my friends, family and colleagues both past and present. All donations will be directly transferred to Macmillan by this Just giving page. I know that money is tight for everyone but if you can give then please also gift aid your donation which is at no additional cost to yourself.

Thank you so much my family really appreciate your support.
