At Macmillan, we will move mountains to help people with cancer live life as fully as they can. We’re doing whatever it takes. But without your help we can’t support everyone who needs us. To donate, volunteer, raise money or campaign with us, call 0300 1000 200 or visit macmillan.org.uk

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In 2012 my mum passed away from cancer and it was very difficult for all of my family. MacMillan made such a difference for my mum during her final days. They worked around the clock including Christmas and New Year’s Day, using their expertise to help care for mum taking pressure off the family. They offered advice, comfort and lifted our spirits, helping us to get through each day. I know my family will be eternally grateful for everything they did.

I really want to give back to Macmillan and raise as much money as possible and would really appreciate your help. 

I have never run a half marathon, in fact I don't think I have actually run more than 2km before. I used to smoke and combined with little exercise I have a huge challenge ahead of me. But any donation you can make will really help me remain motivated during my training and hopefully can really make a difference for Macmillan and other families like mine.    

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
