Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page 🙏🏻

On September 26th, together with a bunch of friends, we will begin the journey of cycling from Venice to Rome. It will last 4 days during which we will cover the distance of over 700km and climb a total elevation of more than 7000m.

It’s going to be a challenging but also a very rewarding journey, and more importantly all funds that we raise will go directly towards supporting clinical research into secondary breast cancer.

This annual cycling campaign, that we are proud to be part of this year, is called One More City. Each year it moves from city to city, starting from where the previous year’s ride finished. Since 2017, when it was inaugurated, One More City has successfully launched seven campaigns and raised nearly £400,000 for secondary breast cancer research in the UK.

The ethos of One More City is that the journey is never over; we are always progressing towards the next city, there are always more kilometres to do, more climbs to conquer and more challenges to face. This is akin to the reality of anyone living with cancer, especially secondary cancer, for whom the challenge is never over; there are always more treatments to endure, more scans to face, more side effects to manage.

Your support in any form - donation and/or words of encouragement - will be greatly appreciated. Our goal is to raise at least £2,000 and we have no doubt that with your kind support we will get there!

Thank you,

Marta (Maura) & Susie 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏻
