About my charity : Ovarian cancer action Ovarian cancer action
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 30%, 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.

My personal message:

New York Marathon 2008
 
On 2nd November 2008, I will be running the 26.2 mile New York Marathon. 
 
To many people's surprise, not only did I finally manage to pack up smoking 20 cigarettes a day at the end of 2007 but I thought why not go from one extreme to another!  My aim is to raise as much money as possible for Ovarian Cancer Action and would really appreciate your support.
