We help families find the strength to face everything cancer throws at them

Story

Did you know that every day in the UK, ten families are told that their child has cancer?  In June 2006, we were one of those families when our son was diagnosed with aggressive non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma......

Mercifully, he is now in remission and is a strapping 18 year old!  We couldn’t have coped, however, without the help of CLIC Sargent who supported the whole family through nursing and counselling and providing accommodation during hospital visits to Bristol where Joe underwent his chemotherapy treatment…..

I am running the London Marathon on Sunday 13th April 2008 in aid of CLIC Sargent.  If you feel you would like to support me, any donation (no matter how small) will be gratefully received so that CLIC can continue to help other families.  If you are a UK taxpayer, Justgiving will automatically reclaim 28% Gift Aid on your behalf, so your donation is worth even more at no extra cost to you!

All donations will be acknowledged.

Thank you for your support
