Story

<p>In 2002 I was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia where I had 4 courses of chemotherapy and a Bone Marrow Transplant at the RVI in Newcastle, today I am still here because of the hard work and efforts of the staff at the hospital.</p> <p>A bike ride will take place in May where a bunch of us will ride from John O'Groats in Scotland to Newcastle Upon Tyne in 6 days. &nbsp;We aim to raise &pound;30,000 which will go towards supporting a Bright Red Outreach Nurse who will help support those with Blood Cancers in the North East.</p> <p>Doing this ride and helping raise money for the charity is one of the only ways I can say Thank You to the staff who helped me on my journey. &nbsp;This charity and the ride means so much to me personally and all I ask is that you spare what you can for the charity.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
