We are Macmillan. Cancer Support.

And that means that we strap on our running shoes, and go stark staring mad, and run 10km.  To remember Em, to support other people living with, and after cancer.  'Cos it's a rubbish disease, and one in three of us will get it at some point in our lives.  This run is on Father's Day: my Daddy has had prostate cancer, and one of my Brownies has a Daddy who is still fighting it.

This year, instead of a birthday present, I'd like a donation, please.  I think you can give as little as £2 - and if everyone I know does, that's a lot of money.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
