Coast 2 Coast Cycle · 3 September 2007

We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

In 2003, I was diagnosed with Leukaemia - thankfully, after 8 months of treatment I  have survived to tell the tale.  Sadly many of those that were treated with me did not.  This month, along with 12 friends I am completing a 140 mile "Coast to Coast" Bike Ride from Whitehaven to Sunderland to raise funds for Leukaemia Research.  This is in memory of my fellow patients who lost their battle to this and other blood cancers. 

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.  Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Leukaemia Research will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.  So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
