My Story

Hello and welcome to my fundraising page! 

Despite not having children of my own, I really struggle to come to terms with the thought of children having their lives cut far too short. For those of you who know me, you will know that I find it extremely difficult when it comes to  kids who suffer misfortune in any circumstances, let alone those with cancer and it is for this reason I have chosen to raise money for Children With Cancer!

I  have lost family members to cancer and I have seen first hand with close friends and loved ones, how this horrible disease can affect the individuals and their friends and families too, especially in children!

We all know someone who has suffered with cancer or know someone who has lost a loved one to cancer and the chances are we all know someone or have experienced ourselves, a child who has suffered as a result of cancer. Completing a marathon has always been a dream of mine and it is so important that we continue to support the incredible work and research that is conducted by charities each and every day, who fight tirelessly to combat this terrible disease. 

Lets not forget, in some instances, there are some remarkable success stories and we need to turn the tables on cancer and get to a point where the successes outweigh the losses, and where a diagnosis of cancer is no longer feared, especially in children!

Please, if you can, I know times are tough at the moment, but anything you can spare to support this wonderful and important charity would be much appreciated and in return I promise to commit to the cause - and give this marathon everything I can!

Thank you for your support - LETS DO THIS! xx
