Story

Hi everyone,

I have decided that my next challenge is to Trek the Great Wall of China in October of this year. As everyone knows Pancreatic Cancer UK is a charity very close to my heart and by taking part in this trek I hope to raise funds and awareness for the disease and charity.

My mummy was such a caring and giving person, always putting her children and others' needs in front of her own! She fought this horrible disease for 7 months with such dignity and strength. I am forever thankful and blessed to call her my mummy, she is and always will be my inspiration and I want to continue to raise money and campaign in her memory. 

I want to help prevent other families from having to experience this horrible disease and heartbreaking statistics. I want the survival rates to give people hope, not to fill them with fear and remove all hope for their loved ones who have pancreatic cancer. For this to happen money is needed for research to create methods for early detection of the cancer. This is where you all help!

Over the years other cancer survival rates have improved greatly but Pancreatic Cancer has been left behind with no change in over 40 years!! 

Pancreatic Cancer UK aim to double the 5-year survival statistics within 5 years! Your donations can help make this a reality, so please donate and thank you for your continuous support and kindness! <3

It’s unacceptable that more than half of people diagnosed with the deadliest common cancer die within three months. That’s why they need and deserve more. More research, more funding, more breakthroughs. More than hope. Together we’ll make that possible.
