Charlie's fundraiser for Cancer Research UK

Snowdon, 10k Mud Run, + 10k Shine Walk · 8 September 2023
I've had enough of hearing the word cancer! The pain and suffering it causes not only to the individual diagnosed but the devastation it creates in families.
In 2019 I created a JustGiving page for CancerResearch following a diagnosis for my grandad, I set a target to raise £200 and thanks to everyones generosity managed to raise a total of £700!
Unfortunately my Grandad lost his battle in 2022, i had planned on creating a page earlier this year to once again raise money for cancer research/to mark his 1 year anniversary - this year i have lost someone else to this dreadful disease which has given me a kick up my arse to get fundraising again!
For people who know me..........you'll know my fitness level is errrr not the best! Running is definitely not something i enjoy so for me these are challenges! In 2019 i set myself 4 tasks which i am looking to repeat again this year.
I will be climbing Snowdown again, hoping for above freezing conditions this time and maybe even some form of view, fingers crossed! I have signed up to the mud run again in June along with my mum and auntie. Towards the end of the year I will be taking part in the Shine Walk, this is one i actually did alongside my grandad back in 2019 so is definitely one i would like to repeat this year with family members :) The 4th i did in 2019 was a colour run, i haven't signed up to one as yet as the one i did take part in clashes with another event in my diary so i'm currently on the look out for a 4th challenge! It could be a colour run or maybe a whole new challenge, i'll keep this page updated when i find something.
The sad fact is that 1 in 2 of us will be affected by cancer (a terrifying statistic!) so the money you donate could end up helping yourself or a loved one........so go on, dig deep! let's try and help make a difference :)
