Thanks for taking the time to visit my just giving page and reading our story (I’ll make it brief :)). I am raising money for Macmillan Cancer Support by walking a half marathon around the Jurassic coast with my dad, mum and sisters, Morgan and Eve.

Here’s my Dad’s story-

‘Having suffered some continuous discomfort in my stomach for some months and with perseverance with the NHS, in July 2023 I was diagnosed with B-cell lymphoma, a type of blood cancer that had produced a cancerous lump in my stomach.

Within a week of my diagnosis I had a phone call from a specialist Macmillan cancer nurse who was very professional, very helpful and who made me feel very supported. This support continued throughout my treatment.

Now thankfully, 5 months later, and after six rounds of difficult chemotherapy, I have been told that I am in remission. I can’t thank Macmillan enough for their help and kindness, this is my small way of giving back to them. If you are able to donate anything, however small, I would be grateful. All donations will go directly to Macmillan.
