Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Kelly's dad (Pete) has recently been diagnosed with prostate cancer. It is treatable, with the treatment due to start asap. Due to him only being 55 years old, we want to raise awareness of this cancer in men of all ages, and to highlight the importance of getting checked out as soon as you can. 

Kelly - "The next couple of months are going to be hard for my dad as he starts his treatment, but I want to support him whilst doing something practical and raising money and awareness for this particular charity, alongside Luke who has agreed to run with me." 

"Not being a natural long-distance runner, the furthest I've ever run is 5K, so it will be hard, but so very much worth it during this 5 mile run..."

We are all staying positive because we know he will be ok after his treatment :-)

Unfortunately, it is doubtful Pete will be able to see us complete the run as he will be undergoing treatment at this time, so we want to make sure we do him proud in his absence! 

We are hoping to raise £400 altogether with online and offline sponsors.

We want to say a big THANK YOU in advance for your all of your kind sponsors, all going to such a brilliant cause which helps men of all ages across the UK living with prostate cancer.
