Story
Thanks for visiting my Just Giving Page.
Everyone's life has been touched, in some way, by cancer and my family and I are no exception.
I decided, after the recent diagnosis of my grandfathers cancer, to try to rasie money and awareness.
Together we can help millions of cancer sufferers and their families.
I have decided on no half measures, I am competing in the London Triathlon after having done virtually no excercise for years.
I am going to compete in the "Super Sprint" this is a 400m Swim, 10km Bike Ride followed by a 2.5km Run at the Excel Centre in London in 2011.
I have kicked off my training and hope to raise over £600 towards easing the life of cancer sufferers and their families.
£143,273
could fund a Macmillan nurse for 3 years, providing emotional and practical help to people affected by cancer and their families.
£105,333
could fund one of Macmillan's new community based rehabilitation support teams.
£29,250
will pay for a Macmillan benefits adviser to work in a Citizen's Advice Bureau for a year providing welfare benefits advice.
£3,333
could keep a Macmillan cancer information and support centre stocked with all the information resources it needs to support people affected by cancer for a year.
£350
could pay for a convalescent break for someone with cancer and their carer.
£51
could buy a liquidiser for someone who can't eat solid food as a result of their cancer treatment.
£17.50
could pay for one more member of a cancer support group to go on a social event with other support group members.
