Story

One in two of us will get cancer in our lifetime.

We all know someone. Every one of us.

Wessex Cancer Support is a charity which relies on donations to provide free and local support to anyone affected by cancer, away from hospital.

The support, help and compassion they provide to those dealt the worst blow, their families - children - friends- loved ones, is incredible, sincere and vital.

Every person receives tailored support that best suits their needs. This ranges from counselling to transport which helps patients travelling from the Isle of Wight to their hospital appointments, as the local hospital is inadequate (thats another story)

Ive ran this before - together we raised over £5000 - but we go again. Cancer has no limits, no prejudice, no mercy, no empathy, no morals and no cure.

Im aware purses and wallets are tight, ive almost halved my target to £2620 - thats £10 per mile. Im worth it, the charity is worth it, can you help ?
