Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page raising sponsorship and donations for those taking part in a 35 mile bike ride through Hertfordshire in aid of The Eve Appeal.  

David's dad Eliot lost his mum in 1970 when he was 8 to breast cancer before the breast cancer gene was discovered,  and he only found out three years ago that Eliot is a BRCA1 (breast cancer) carrier - he did not realise at the time that men could be carriers too.  

David's sister Hayley chose to be tested at that time and was also found to be a carrier and recently successfully underwent preventative double mastectomy and reconstruction.  David himself had chosen to delay testing for a few years but obviously he could have been a carrier too. 

I have therefore decided to raise funds for the Eve Appeal, the UK's only charity for research into the five gynaecological cancers, and we feel sure that David would have supported our efforts for this very important initiative.
