Raising money for

Ovarian Cancer Action

Charity Registration No. 1109743

Ovarian Cancer Action is the leading ovarian cancer charity in the UK. Ovarian Cancer Action funds research into ovarian cancer, raises awareness of the disease and gives a voice to women affected by it. Ovarian cancer kills 12 women a day in the UK, and survival rates are low at 40%, compared to 80% for breast cancer. We urgently need to raise £10million for the new Ovarian Cancer Action research centre, at Imperial College London – the UK’s first ever research facility entirely dedicated to ovarian cancer. Thanks to a large increase in research spending on breast cancer, survival rates have increased by over 20% in the last decade. Ovarian Cancer Action believes that, with the same input, we can make a similar impact on ovarian cancer.

My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. It will be just a year since Avandah died, that the 100km trek in the Sahara desert gets underway. You will recall that we trekked both in China, and in Israel, on behalf of the Childrens Society, and it was in Israel that she 'found the desert '- which she just loved, and it seems the right thing to do, to mark this anniversary even though she wasn't big on tents! Any money which you care to donate will be split equally between The Willowbrook Hospice, where she spent the last four weeks of her life, and Ovarian Cancer Action. Both of these charities are in real need of funds, and they both may help others in the same situation as that in which we found ourselves last year. I am also physically collecting sponsorships, so the total raised will be in excess of that shown on the website. I will let everyone know how much is finally raised.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Ovarian cancer action gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Thank you for your support.
