I am taking part in the London Marathon raising money for Force Cancer Charity.

In July 2023 I was diagnosed with malignant melanoma, skin cancer in two main primary. The past 6 months has largely been spent undergoing treatment. I am still currently receiving treatment and although much of immunotherapy is positive with high success rates, ive also had to deal with the horrendous side effects its caused.

In July I secured a place in the London Marathon Ballot, after several years of trying, and I've chosen to make it a challenge now as I don't know what the future holds.

Force work locally to support anyone affected by cancer diagnosis, treatment and aftercare. For me, personally, Force has been a haven, somewhere to go for advice and support. The centre has been a place I can drop into for tea, coffee and a friendly face. Run by an amazing, caring and knowledgeable team who are specifically trained to deal with everything from practical concerns to offering psychological support, as well as, holding many classes and events.

Any amount is greatly appreciated & helps Force to continue supporting those affected by cancer.
