My story

IMPORTANT, PLEASE READ

Cancer Sucks! Im fed up of watching friends and family suffering and sometimes dying, - and I'm sure Im not the only person. Unfortunatly, this won't change without the help of the worlds community of cancer research scientists.

I have chosen the AICR for several reasons. 1. I have had the privilege of fundraising for them with their home money box appeal (ps if you get a call asking you to tak e a box, please take one for your loose change!) and they truly are devoted to making a difference. 2. I don't want to just support people and scientists in the UK, as many of my friends are from other countries and although we have some amazing scientists and doctors in the UK working (many of which are AICR funded) but some of the brightest minds are abroad, and why should we dismiss their ideas if they might make the difference between a massive breakthough that helps save people over here (as well as worldwide). SO you may or maynot know that a big hobby of mine is jewellery making, and as part of that I make charm bracelets. Like the rubber bands that have been popular over the last few years, I want to make my bracelets something that will raise awareness and raise some cash.

The bracelets will be made from pearls and have a toggle catch and either a cancer ribbon charm or an angel wing charm (please specify) and can be made for a small, medium or large wrist. The bracelets will cost £6 although please feel free to pay more if you like and I will need you to email me jen.hall89@ymail.com on where to send the bracelet or when we can meet to give you it. If your are a guy, no excuse, buy as a gift for any girlfriends, mums, sisters etc!
