Raising money for

Against Breast Cancer

Charity Registration No. 1121258

Against Breast Cancer funds unique research to increase survival after diagnosis and ultimately to discover a vaccine. Our emphasis on the prevention of secondary spread is ground-breaking in breast cancer research and our Diet & Lifestyle Study is now the largest of its kind in the world. Our commitment to continuing the Study and developing a vaccine that would stimulate immunity against breast cancer needs more vital resources to help us achieve our vision of a future free of breast cancer.

My story

STOP PRESS. Marathon completed at 12.54pm April 26th in a time of 3.09.02.

I will be running the London Marathon on 26^th April this year and would be really grateful if you’d sponsor my chosen charity, which is Against Breast Cancer (ABC). This will be my 13^th marathon in the last 5 years but my first to raise money for charity. I've chosen a breast cancer charity because my wife was diagnosed with the cancer last autumn and we know and have known so many people who have been affected by the disease.

Also I believe ABC's aim, to support a unique combination of breast cancer research that includes three areas: diet and lifestyle, biochemistry and immunology, will hopefully contribute significantly to increased survival and diagnosis and prevention of secondary cancer, and ultimately possibly to discover a vaccine against breast cancer; all of which I feel is well worth pursuing for our children’s and grandchildren’s sakes at least.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Against Breast Cancer gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
