Story

Something needs to be done....so I have decided to kick Cancer's ass!!

 

Gone too soon:

Cancer affects 1 in 3 of us....I know five brave people who fought and inspired us all and showed us that life is precious

* Jack Wood

* Patrick McCarthy

* Pat Ratcliffe

* Claire Gallagher

* Kath Smith

They are sadly missed, they were taken from us far too soon and they are my motivation to raise money for Cancer Research UK - the world's leading charity dedicated to BEATING cancer through research.

 

I will be running the Great North Run in September to raise money for Cancer Research UK. This will be my first half marathon. I hope to raise at least £500 for this Chairty.

 

Jonnythefirth aka Jonny Firth has put together a compliation album titled ' THE TIME WE HAD' in memory of all those we have loved and lost to the battle of cancer
