As most of you Lucy Verity has been undergoing treatment for bone cancer and is into her 4th year now, she has completed her 23rd round of chemotherapy and is about to start on another load of chemo on Monday 11th March. Treatment for this disease is brutal and research for kinder ways to treat/cure this awful disease is needed.

I’ve signed Chris Verity and John Dickinson up for their 60th Birthdays (Charlie is standing in for a John as he couldn’t do new date) to do a firewalk later in November (was postponed to Saturday 9th March) and ask friends and family not to give presents to Chris but instead to donate a few pounds to this worthwhile cause. If you can spare a few pounds, no amount too small (or large) it would really be appreciated. Thank you so much.

The Bone Cancer Research Trust is dedicated to saving lives & improving outcomes for people affected by primary bone cancer. Despite being small, they fund more research projects exploring primary bone cancer than any other organisation. Other large UK cancer research charities do not prioritise bone cancer patients, in 2019 just 0.028% of their research spend went to bone cancer – not even close to 1%!

Last year alone, Bone Cancer Research Trust committed an incredible £807,824 to pioneering bone cancer research - to save lives!
