Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page for our charity cycle raising money for Guy’s Cancer Charity.

Last year Lucie was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. Lucie underwent treatment through the whole of 2022 with the amazing Guy's Hospital. In response, myself and 4 friends took to the roads in July '22 to raise money for Guys.

In January this year we found out that Lucie's cancer journey wasn't quite over when she was diagnosed with Brain cancer, less than 12 months on from her first diagnosis.

Lucie has faced this with great positivity and strength, as she did last time.

Watching someone, especially a loved one, battling cancer is not easy to say the least, even if it is for a second time.

Myself and 5 friends will, again, be taking to the roads this June to cycle from London to Devizes (160 km) and back from Devizes to London (160 km), a total of 320 km over 2 days! This is to raise money for Guy’s cancer charity where Lucie has been receiving ongoing treatment. The facilities and staff at Guy’s are absolutely amazing and have made the past few months as stress free as possible.

About the charity

Guy's Cancer Charity

RCN 1160316-16
With a focus on patient-centred care, we combine state-of-the art-equipment, novel clinical trials, passionate staff and the most modern cancer research with compassion and effective psychological support so that our patients and their loved ones can feel fully supported throughout their cancer journey. We do this because we know each person and every cancer is unique - we don’t want to treat them all the same. Guy’s is the leading UK provider of care and treatment for people with cancer and we’re dedicated to helping patients navigate what can be the most challenging time of their lives. With all our services located under one roof within our bright and welcoming Cancer Centre, we’re able to offer seamless care every step of the way, from diagnosis, through treatment, and after, in an environment that doesn’t feel like a traditional hospital. We know that the landscape of cancer is changing. More people are being affected, but we’re at an exciting point in time when promising new therapies are being developed and research breakthroughs are waiting to be made. It’s crucial that we continue to fund the innovative research, treatment and exceptional care that takes place at Guy’s to ensure we keep going above and beyond what the NHS alone can provide as we help more people cope with and survive cancer.
