This year I have been lucky enough to get a space to run the London Marathon, on 26 April. Training has started early, however successfully completing the run is only half the challenge I have promised to raise lots of money for charity, and this is where I really need all your help…
The charity I am running for is Breast Cancer Care and the charity is very close to my heart.
As you may be aware, cancer has affected my family greatly…. l lost my uncle and grandad to cancer and just last week my mum, Kath, lost her battle with cancer on 9 Jan.
Mum’s illness started off as breast cancer but then spread to her bones, she bravely fought the disease for over 2 ½ years. Charities like Breast Cancer Care help people just like my mum, and I am now running the marathon in memory of her.
Breast Cancer Care is the 's leading provider of information, practical assistance and emotional support for anyone affected by breast cancer.
Every year they give direct support to over 22,000 people with breast cancer or breast health concerns through their helpline, peer support and other direct services.
So forgive me for being so blunt, but please part with a little money…any amount however small (or large!) will be appreciated so much. xxx
Thanks for your support
Cheers
