He was a man who was full of life and always tried to enjoy everything to its maximum.&nbsp;He&nbsp;tragically did not get to enjoy his life for&nbsp;long enough and those&nbsp;close to him will miss numerous years of shared happiness.</span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Awareness and ea</span></span></span><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">rly detection would&nbsp;possibly save thousands of&nbsp;lives&nbsp;each year.</span><span style="font-size: x-small;">&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></span></p> <span style="font-size: x-small; color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">&nbsp;</span></span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Those of you who have been affected by Cancer will understand the cruel and ruthless way in which it does not discriminate between its victims. The knock on effect is maybe most&nbsp;devastating for all who knew and loved them.</span></span></span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"></span></span></p> </span></span> <p><span style="font-size: x-small; color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">Over the last two&nbsp;years&nbsp;we have achieved amazing success raising&nbsp;&pound;18,000 in&nbsp;2 years. Each year i am trying to increase the number of students that take part. This year we are hoping that 75+ students will take&nbsp;part and increase the amount of money we raised to in excess of &pound;15,000.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small; color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">This year there will be 3 schools taking part, City of Ely Community College, St Ivo School and Prince William School.</span></span></p> <span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> <p>&nbsp;</p> </span></span></span></span></span></span></span> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;">I would&nbsp;personally like to thank you in advance for your support&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;">Damien Whales</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;">For more information please visit <a href="http://www.malcolmwhales.co.uk">www.malcolmwhales.co.uk</a> </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: x-small;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p>Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure.
