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.

We're riding a hundred miles from London to Leamington to show support for our friend Emily who is undergoing her 2nd batch of chemo treatments against ovarian cancer.

(with the exception of Laura, who's doing the Great North Run... thanks Laura!)

UPDATE: We did it!! 2 punctures, 2 spare tyres, 1 spare bike, 1 idiot London driver, 1 pulled muscle, 1 case of tendonitis, 1 full day of rain, 3 near cases of hypothermia, 2 bursts of tears, 16 pairs of soaking wet gloves, socks and shoes, 38 energy bars, 50 litres of water and 100 miles later…

Emily has chosen Ovarian Cancer Action to receive our donations. OVA are dedicated to improving survival rates by funding research, raising awareness and giving a voice.

Ovarian Cancer is difficult to detect as its symptoms are similar to IBS. The fact that most cases are detected in late stages contributes to the low survival rate for the disease. If detected early chances of survival are much greater, and therefore it's worth checking if you experience severe, persistent or very frequent IBS symptoms.
